Every day we are faced with a series of choices in how we allocate our time and energy\, yet often the pressures life puts on us make us feel like we don’t have a choice. That was the experience of Niki Schaefer when she suffered a stroke at 38 years old as a result of placing more importance on her career\, parenting\, family\, friend and community obligations than she placed on her own mental and physical health. Niki will explain what happened and the lessons she learned on her road to recovery that helped her find health and happiness post-stroke. \n\n  \nThe value of workplace friendships  \nSam Queeno\, Director\, Physical Security\, AEP\, and Founder\, Best Friend Friday  \n\nYou may know Sam Queeno from his work as Director of Physical Security for AEP\, but beyond his security expertise\, Sam has another passion: the value of having a best friend at work. He started Best Friend Friday\, a weekly video series that highlights best friends at work\, in 2018\, and published a book on this subject as well in May 2024. This passion project has grown to become a framework that can be used both to improve relationships in the workplace and beyond. Sam will discuss the “best friend at work” concept and the value it can bring to your organization.

The NERC and FERC team will provide a recap of system performance during Winter Storms Gerri and Heather\, which impacted our region from Jan. 10 to 17\, 2024\, plus review recommendations from FERC-NERC-Regional Entity joint reports.\n\nReliabilityFirst Cold Weather Winterization and Small Group Advisory Sessions \nMike Hughes\, Manager\, Entity Engagement\, RF \nTim Fryfogle\, Principal Engineer – Resources\, Engineering & System Performance\, RF \n\nThe RF team will provide an overview of our Cold Weather Winterization program\, plus a look back at our site visits from this past winter and performance in the RF region. The team will also touch upon NERC’s recent Small Group Advisory Sessions (SGAs) which provided an educational opportunity for registered entities to meet with NERC and the Regional Entities to discuss cold weather preparedness Reliability Standards including EOP-011\, EOP-012\, and TOP-002.\n\nIntended Audience \nThese presentations are especially relevant for RTOs\, utilities\, and generators facing reliability risks due to extreme cold weather. State commission staff and others in regulatory affairs may also be interested in the steps that NERC and the regions are taking to enforce new Reliability Standards\, share best practices\, lessons learned\, and recommendations from previous events to drive continuous improvement in mitigating these risks. \n  \nReference Materials\nTech Talk with RF July 2024
