William Heath to Deliver Keynote Address on The Citizen and Personalised Services
By
William Heath, Founder of Ctrl-Shift, will be delivering a keynote address at Government 2010.
William will focus on how citizens need to be empowered to create personalised services and take ownership of data held by government about them…
Start with a diagram that puts your own organisation at the centre of the universe. Gather as much personal data as possible at every stage. Keep it for ever. Buy in more data from brokers to try to try to fill the gaps. Then share it with other organisations. I call this the wrong way to share data. William Heath
