There are some FANTASTIC videos of the sessions from SQLInspire New York 2011.  I highly recommend that you check out all the videos, as I found some great career tips in all of them.  As the site says “We’ve lined up speakers set to inspire you to create and grow in your career as a data professional”.  Visit it here.  A list of the seven talks (each speaker was also interviewed):
