Fusion PPT, a recognized strategy and technology solution firm, announced today that CEO Michael Biddick’s article on Government IT Leadership has been published in InformationWeek Government.

The Obama administration is aiming to change the thinking of federal IT leadership. Transparency, citizen participation, and agency collaboration are in; silos, cost overruns, and project stagnation are out. Those are the “open government” marching orders intended to make federal agencies more efficient, accessible, and connected to the people they serve. To get there, government IT leaders must rethink the management approaches they take and the technologies they employ, including the use of Web 2.0 technologies to support government 2.0 initiatives.
