Topics: Becoming Best Buds: Modernizing How Government Treats Business
Government is not known for being business-friendly, taxes suck, and bureaucracies move slow. All these things are true – so how can government switch things up enough so that it actually helps entrepreneurs and business owners? Learn how the Los Angeles Office of Finance is answering this question through use cases that look at technology, people, and process working in unison towards goals and impact.
During our time together we will learn protips and strategies to change management through product development, data management, and human relations. We’ll explore basic strategy, use of tools, visualization techniques, lessons learned from wins and failures, and actionable steps to implement lessons in your own work.
This presentation is not limited to government employees – everyone interacts with government, either as an individual or a professional, so come learn how the second largest city in the country is improving the relationships between government and its local business community.
