Digital Government Summit 2024 - Central Florida | e.Republic | 25 April 2024 | DoubleTree by Hilton Downtown, 8 Stone St, New York, NY 10004, USA

The Summit brings together technology focused public-sector professionals with leading industry partners to connect on innovative approaches, get inspired and discover new technologies. Join us and let’s improve the future of government together!

Leading and Motivating the Human for Tomorrow:
• The “human” means more to your team’s success today than ever before. How will emerging advances in technology, along with constant changes in global, social, and economic factors, present unforeseen difficulties for employees in the future? This presentation defines how today’s leaders can champion and serve their teams by preparing them today to meet the unknown challenges of tomorrow.

Readiness, Responsiveness and Resilience:
• Recent global events have laid bare the need for robust continuity plans that include collaboration between state and local governments. We’ve witnessed heroic work and along the way learned some valuable lessons – one of which is that the next virus, fire, flood, or cyber-disruption is just around the corner. This session asks (and answers) the question: “How can local governments work together to prepare for, respond to, and recover from the next catastrophic event?”
