#55: Bridgebuilders: How Government Can Transcend Boundaries to Solve Big Problems with William D. Eggers

William D. Eggers is the Executive Director of Deloitte’s Center for Government Insights where he is responsible for the firm’s public sector thought leadership.

He also serves as a fellow at the National Academy of Public Administration, a governance futures council member at the World Economic Forum, an advisory board member at What Works Cities and chairs the Leadership Council for New America.

He is the author of numerous books including his newest Bridgebuilders: How Government Can Transcend Boundaries to Solve Big Problems. Which I had the pleasure of discussing with him

Some of the topics we discussed includes: 

• The vending machine form of government and why this no longer works.
• The 10 Key areas for Bridgebuilding.
• The power of collaboration between government and multi-sector organisation's
• Expanding on some of the key areas
• The process of writing the book for William & Donald and whether their perspectives changed during it.
• While putting the book together, who did he have in mind to read it?

 The Book and Audiobook:  Bridgebuilders: How Government Can Transcend Boundaries to Solve Big Problems is out now.
