McQuillin: Honing the Edge

Aspen Technology President and CEO-elect David McQuillin on Wednesday morning, May 22, discusses how companies are gaining a competitive edge by implementing collaborative engineering solutions from AspenTech and Intergraph under the companies' strategic alliance. In "Collaboration: The Competitive Edge," McQuillin presents a scenario for engineering collaboration that positively impacts the entire process plant lifecycle. He addresses why successful adoption of these systems must meet the plant owner's need to solve complex operations issues within heavy budget constraints and the engineering firm's requirements for flexibility and project control. Collaborative engineering technology, McQuillin asserts, helps relieve the pressures on highly-competitive and regulated industries operating in a global economy marked by low-cost capacity from emerging markets along with rising demand from customers and shareholders alike.

McQuillin has more than 21 years of senior international marketing, sales and general management experience in enterprise software and the process industries. He holds a bachelor's degree in Applied Science from Miami University.

AspenTech and Intergraph Process, Power & Offshore began their strategic alliance in 1998 with the goal of developing complementary, integrated, data-centric solutions based on Intergraph SmartPlant and The Engineering Framework architectures and Aspen software technology.

"Pit Bull of Personal Development" Issues Challenge

Special guest keynote speaker is Larry Winget, philosopher of success and internationally recognized speaker and author. Conference goers can experience Winget's provoking wake-up call on Tuesday afternoon, May 21, as he presents uniquely humorous and insightful lessons in "Stuff That Works Every Single Day." Inspiring and entertaining listeners with funny stories, Winget teaches universal principles of success that will work for anyone, in any business at any time. Billed as the "Pit bull of Personal Development," Winget offers principles of success, leadership, customer service and sales.

"People need to be reminded that customers enjoy doing business with people who enjoy doing their business," says Winget, author of more than a dozen books and a highly successful salesman. "When you grow up simple, you have a tendency to keep it simple," Winget says of his speaking style, which is provoking and direct, almost confrontational.

He believes that most of us have complicated life and business way too much, take it way too seriously and that we need to lighten up, take responsibility, be more flexible and keep it all in perspective. Winget doesn't mince words and says there is no excuse for not being successful -one of the touchstones of his challenging message which includes a mix of life lessons and humor that he calls "hardcore self-help."
