This document discusses how legacy IT organizations in public service can adopt a startup mentality. It notes that mobility and APIs are transforming public service by enabling greater connectivity and collaboration. With more devices and digital content being created, legal and technical systems must work together to empower workers and encourage contributions from citizens and private partners. Mobility and APIs can increase transparency and allow new forms of civic participation like crowdsourcing data. However, security and privacy must be designed into new systems from the beginning. The document advocates inspiring innovation within organizations by empowering "intrapreneurs" and embracing new ideas.

Public Service = What “We The People” Do TogetherPublic Service = What “We The People” Do Together
So What Do We Want To Do Together?
18. The Importance of
Public Service
Mobility + APIs enable secure collaboration
anywhere, anytime, on any device
to reshape how & who does public service
19. The Importance of
Public Service
Mobility + APIs allow institutions to open data
for greater public interactions, discussions
and citizen-led remixing
20. The Importance of
Public Service
Public can volunteer smartphones as sensors,
collect evidence to inform policy debates, or
lend computing cycles on hard problems
21. The Importance of
Public Service
Future also includes algorithms working alongside public
service workers so when is having software make an
unbiased recommendation better than a human?
22. The Importance of
Public Service
As we embrace Mobility + APIs
security and privacy must be baked-in at code dev level,
testing from ground up and automating alerts
The same alerts for
Security + Privacy
incident concerns, also
alert for Software bugs or
Hardware faults
23. The Importance of
Public Service
As a embrace Mobility + APIs
institutions must encourage and empower "intrapreneurs"
to pioneer end-to-end IT innovation within
Storyboard workflows,
Encourage innovation +
Incorporate feedback on
progress, Empowered to
bring IT Change
26. “If—” (1895)
Rudyard Kipling
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
27. “If—” (1895)
Rudyard Kipling
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
28. “If—” (1895)
Updated for 2014
If you can serve multiple parties, including the greater good
Though none may ever notice what you endure,
If you can innovate shared solutions so together we could
Choose to make our world prosperous, free, and secure;
If you can serve multiple parties, including the greater good
Though none may ever notice what you endure,
29. “If—” (1895)
Updated for 2014
If you can embody what “We the People” stands for:
Choices and compromises—both recognized as central,
Then yours is an internet society’s truly great endeavor
Promoting courage, creativity, and ideas from us all.
If you can embody what “We the People” stands for:
Choices and compromises—both recognized as central,
