In times of crisis, how can public officials respond effectively while navigating the complexities of government structures? The answer lies in understanding and applying the principles of “crisis engineering.” This workshop will introduce participants to innovative approaches for identifying crises, managing towards resolution, and making the most of the opportunity for changes that are impossible under normal operations..
Join InnovateUS experts for a hands-on session that explores the fundamentals of bureaucracy hacking and crisis engineering. Drawing on real-world examples, this workshop will illustrate how public officials can build resilience into their processes, enabling them to respond adeptly to emergencies. Whether dealing with natural disasters, public health issues, or other urgent challenges, you’ll learn how to anticipate problems, act swiftly, and drive impactful solutions, even within the constraints of government systems.
This session is designed for public officials who face the challenges of crisis management daily. Participants will leave with actionable skills and insights that can be applied immediately to their work, helping to bridge the information gap between technical experts and the broader public sector.
