The 2019 Best Bosses in Fed IT

The federal government faces the large and daunting challenge of modernizing its technology. All around government, agencies are undertaking unprecedented digital — and cultural — transformation as they attempt to deliver 21st-century services and give federal employees better tools and capabilities to do their jobs.

Good leadership is one of the most important elements for driving that transformation. At the center of the most successful IT organizations around government are tireless decision-makers striving to deliver on their agency’s mission and serve the American public through technology.
