Earlier this week, I addressed the topic of social media in the military and government on a panel at The Army and The Navy Club in Washington, DC. With so many of our clients deeply entrenched in various social media campaigns, I found the panel to be a great opportunity to share our experience in the nonprofit and civilian sectors with military leaders.

Too often "new" constructs are not really that new and they aren't really usable in business in general, much less in the world of technology-focused strategy. It was almost by accident, then, that I stumbled onto a piece called Strategy as Learning in the recent issue of Columbia's e-newsletter " Ideas At Work.

I recently attended Transparency Camp , a two-day event organized by the Sunlight Foundation. The event convened almost 300 passionate people, all coming together for a common goal: to share knowledge on how to use new technologies to make our government transparent, accountable and meaningfully accessible to the public. I was pleasantly surprised by the number of people interested or involved in local open government projects.
