WEBINAR: Sustainability and Climate Resilience in Homeland Security with IBM’s Center for the Business of Government – August 21

Homeland Security Today has partnered with the IBM Center for the Business of Government to share insights from their “Future Shocks” initiative and subsequent book, Transforming the Business of Government: Insights on Resiliency, Innovation, and Performance.

SPEAKERS:

Chris Mihm, Managing Director, Strategic Issues, Government Accountability Office

The means and methods traditionally employed by government face a significant challenge posed by the advent of disruptive technologies like artificial intelligence, the changing nature of physical and cyber threats, and the impact of social media and miscommunication on society.

This partnership will share insights on how our homeland community can build resilience in thinking and action, innovate while running, and stay ahead of the enemy. Through an on-going column and paired webinars, we will explore how best practices, questions about the unknown, and insights from several IBM Center initiatives can be applied to leadership thinking.

Government is being asked to handle “everything everywhere all at once.” Homeland Security Today seeks to elevate our understanding of, and planning for, how numerous disparate factors interact and translate these insights into actionable goals for the homeland community.
