SUMMARY:The Importance of Public Service #ChangeAgents in Exponential Times by David Bray, CIO of the FCC
DESCRIPTION:
 The Quello Center Presents: David Bray, CIO of 
 the FCC\n

 Technology 
 is rapidly changing our world, 
 the 7 billion networked devices in 2013 
 will double 14 billion in 2015 to anywhere between 
 50 to 200 billion in 2020. The ability 
 to work and collaborate securely anywhere, anytime, 
 on any device will reshape public service. 
 Greater transparency of activities and 
 budgets within and outside institutions will 
 enable choice architectures to increase effectiveness. 
 We must ensure security and privacy 
 are baked-in at code development level, testing 
 from ground up and automating alerts. Legal 
 code and digital code must work together, 
 enabling more inclusive work across government 
 workers, citizen-led contributions, and public 
 private partnerships. Institutions must encourage 
 and empower positive change agents on 
 the inside to pioneer end-to-end innovation. 
 Institutions must also open their data for 
 greater public interaction, citizen-led remixing, 
 and discussions. All together, these actions 
 will transform Public Service to truly be 
 "We the (Mobile, Data-Enabled, Collaborative) 
 People" working to improve our world.\n

 Dr. David Bray currently serves as 
 the Chief Information Officer (CIO) for the 
 Federal Communications Commission but began working

 Community, later receiving the National Intelligence
