Dr. Joe Perez, Senior IT Lead at North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services and Chief Technology Officer at Solontek joins the show to discuss how data is changing the landscape in government and ways for leaders to support a culture change around information. We also have a conversation about why is it so challenging for government to roll out technology as quick as the private sector, predictions on how data will continue to change government, and what challenges keep a CTO up at night in this new normal.
