Solving for X, Episode 2: Does This Work in the Real World? Sep 12, 2022

Show notes

Does "Solving for X" actually make sense in the real world? In this episode, Nina and Chris welcome two senior federal leaders, Dorothy Aronson, Chief Information Officer and Chief Data Officer for the National Science Foundation and Robyn Rees, an ATARC Board Member and advocate for unlocking human capital data to power workforce transformation. Together their combined experiences span across both the private and public sector and in this episode they discuss the similarities between customers and employees - since employees and customers too. They share how customer-centered design can also be used to improve the employee experience. Can we create a marketplace where employees can manage their own portfolio of skills and be matched to jobs like Uber drivers are matched to riders? Dorothy believes the workforce of the future will enjoy what they're doing and enjoy doing it from wherever they want using the tools they select rather than structured tools that are forced onto them. Robyn shares her thoughts about where the distinction between CX and EX might come from and how to overcome it. Dorothy advocates for the importance of leading with humanity versus just managing to build trust with teams. Robyn discusses the need for cultural change that's enabled through digital change by putting the tools in the hands of the people getting the work done and by Solving for X.

Episode 1: Introducing “Solving for X" Sep 01, 2022

Show notes

Nina Bianchi, Solution Principal for Medallia Public Sector, and Chris Crist, Chief of DevSecOps at US Transportation Command both agree that workforce and digital transformation in the federal government lies at the intersection of the customer, employee, and workforce experiences. The question is…which one comes first and what does the workforce experience of the future look like? How does the government use the EX + CX = WX formula? Can it be used to help the government becomes the Nation's top employer? In this episode they dig into the government employee experience. Are federal employees waking up excited to go to work, and if not, how does that impact the customer experience? Are customers receiving service worth telling their family or friends about - in private sector positive customer testimonials are essential! Nina connects the customer experience (CX), such as filing taxes, applying for student loans, or using a veterans hospital, as a reflection of the federal employee’s experiences (EX). What would we hear from our employees if we simply asked them how they're doing or what challenges exist is serving the Nation’s customers? There is undoubtedly a connection to the customer and employee experiences. Most importantly how can the workforce experiences help attract the best and brightest talent to government jobs? Join them as they try to Solve for X.
