Want a sneak peek into how the new federal CTO Aneesh Chopra is approaching his job? You won't do much better than read Saul Hansell's piece from today that covers his very recent sit down with Chopra.
That said, it's understood that Chopra remains working on his official platform and priorities and that he will soon lay them out to the public and business leaders. Patience. The man has only been on the job for a couple of weeks.
When the official roll-out does happen, as Hansell notes, expect there to be plenty of talk of metrics and measurements mixed in with vision...
When I asked about his goals for the job, Mr. Chopra walked over to his desk and grabbed one page of what appeared from a distance to be a PowerPoint deck, which he described as “my theory of the case document.” It listed Mr. Chopra’s four objectives, as presented recently to Rahm Emanuel, the White House chief of staff. They were:
* Economic growth through innovation
* Addressing presidential priorities through innovation platforms
* Building the next-generation digital infrastructure
* Fostering a culture of open and innovative government...
... Mr. Chopra, a former management consultant, talked often about ways to quantify and evaluate various government efforts. And at the end of our talk, he proposed two metrics by which his own work could be measured:
First: “Can we achieve the president’s goals better, faster, cheaper through technology?” And second: “How many new billion-dollar businesses can we create by unlocking government data or government policy?”
