Paul Knight began his brewing career in 1961 working as “summer help” for Olympia Brewing Company. In 1972 he had the opportunity to attend Siebel’s Institute of Brewing Technology in Chigago, IL. After graduating he returned to Olympia Brewing Company where his career progressed from General Cellar Supervisor to Assistant Brewmaster and in 1974 he was promoted to Manager, Brewing Operations. Paul’s career included the initiation of a "Waste Product Recovery" which resulted in a seven million dollar facility to process brewery waste and is a system still in operation today. Since retiring Paul has maintained his interest in brewing while devoting his time to restoring old cars and old airplanes and as a volunteer for Habitat for Humanity. More recently Paul has been involved with the Old Brewhouse Foundation and helped in the construction of the Old Brewhouse Mobil Museum trailer.

Instructor BiographyTim Madeley had a 25 year career working in various jobs in the commercial playground industry when he was given the opportu-nity to purchase his long-time employer, BigToys. He started in 2004 with a team of 15 employees and re-invented the company by introducing a product line made largely from recycled materials. This resulted in a doubling of sales in the first four years. In 2010, he recognized the company needed greater resources which led to the acquisition of the company by its largest competitor. This allowed Tim to pursue his passion – teaching in higher educa-tion. He is pleased to be sharing his experiences with students at SPSCC.

Business Analysis Strategy Analysis & PerspectivesThis course describes the activities necessary to identify a business need, problem or opportunity, define the nature of a solution that meets that need and justify the investment necessary to deliver that solution. Enterprise Analysis outputs provide context to requirements analysis, and to solution identification for a given initiative or for long-term planning. This is often the starting point for initiating a new project and is continued as changes occur and more information becomes available. Instructor: Sharon Sikes.6/13-6/14 MT 8:00am-4:30pm $395Code C752 Lacey Campus L1-191 15 PDUs

Business Analysis Requirements Analysis and Design Definition Presents tasks and techniques used by a business analyst to analyze stated requirements to define required capabilities of a potential solution that will fulfill stakeholder needs.

Business Analysis Techniques Provides a high-level overview of the techniques referenced in all Knowledge Areas of the BABOK® Guide. Tech-niques alter the way a business analysis task is performed or describe a specific form the output of a task may take. These techniques are applicable to enough business analysis practitioners, that a skilled generalist should reasonably be expected to be familiar with the existence and purpose of them all. Business analysts who specialize in a particular methodology or business domain may need to understand a smaller set of techniques in greater depth, or may need to develop expertise in techniques not described here.

Leading Through Difficulty: Emotional Intelligence, Communication, and Conflict Management Most employees spend too much time in conflict situations. Most managers spend too much time putting out fires that could have been prevented with better planning and more deliberate actions. These events collide to create a constant strain for managers. This program gives them the tools to better manage themselves so they are less drained from these realities, it clarifies processes for handling conflicts head-on before they become too hot to handle, and it pro-vides practice in communication skills for turning difficult situations into win-wins almost all the time.4/11-4/13 MTW 8:00am-4:30pm $550 Code C623 Lacey Campus L1-182 21 CHs

Motivating & Coaching to Build Top Talent Organizations need people to step up and get the job done. Most organizations expect this without giving enough of the right kinds of support to staff and without insisting on the right kinds of activities from managers. This class helps participants create environments that compel initiative at every level and gives them the hands-on coaching practice needed to develop people’s capacity, be they already high-performers, entry level staff, or somewhere in between. 6/1-6/3 WThF 8:00am-4:30pm $550Code C625 Lacey Campus L1-182 21 CHs

Managing Change & Making Great Decisions Organizations that have the right change rollout conversa-tions and involve the right people at the right times are the most successful. Organizations that are clear about their decision making criteria and how each member is expected to input are more productive. This program leads participants through an assessment of these processes in their organization and for their teams. Teaches strategies to immediately elevate functioning and provides templates for keeping the improvement focused and on track in the future.Summer 2016

Leading from the Middle: Influencing with-out Direct Authority To get the job done, effective leaders know how to use influence when they lack direct authority. They innovate, using informal power to compel key stakeholders, upward, downward, and laterally. Participants in this course will experience expanded positive influence by embodying the attributes of influential people, discover how to read situations in order to bring the right communication, and learn strategies to brand their leadership identity with oth-ers and with themselves. 6/27-6/29 MTW 8:00am-4:30pm $550 Code C094 Lacey Campus L1-182 21 CHs
