Kicking Off The Strategy

So far it’s been a hectic day, launching the Transformational Government strategy. And it’s been a hectic summer as we’ve worked on it. What has struck me is the amount of collaboration it has all entailed. 

We’ve been to far corners of the country –from primary schools to even an oil rig. We’ve met those on both sides of the frontline and they’ve shared their insights with us.  It’s all been very useful as we develop the strategy.

It’s an example of the type of behaviour we hope that this strategy will drive.  Listen to the customer – gain insight. Design that insight into the services. Make sure we share where possible. And, make sure that we make the most of the professionals involved.

I’ve also been struck with the appetite for transformation. Recently, I made a couple of speeches about e-Government. One to a conference and the other in a Westminster debate.  The questions and comments that followed were encouraging. There’s an acceptance that transformational e-government is a way ahead for public services. There’s also an eagerness to go faster and further.  It’s clear that many of Ideal Government’s contributors share that eagerness.  I hope that when you read our strategy that you’ll see it as laying the foundations for that future.

You can find the strategy and supporting docs on the CIO site.

Ideal Government

Let's say what we want from e-enabled government. Let's observe government first-hand. Let's say "Wouldn't It Be Better If" (WIBBI). Become an ethnographer of bureaucracy today! It beats getting frustrated with public services.
