well I certainly had a great time presenting at #23NTC, thanks everyone for coming and @NTENorg for hosting. Linking notes/slides to the next tweets for anyone interested

I just want to share this with even *more* people: great model for how to articulate a TOC

I think @mlenc has been looking for this exact conference for a loooong time

If it sounds like a data problem, it's probably a people problem.

Making the world better through deregulation 🙃 . Here’s some stuff we’re reading.

Auditors: my favourite underappreciated agents of social change.

Are your projects “big enough to fail?” Check out our new blog post on giving our projects a chance to succeed: ajah.ca/blog/2022/12/1…

We put together an event at TAG to do my favourite thing: complain (about data)

This week we are reading about data (shocking):

Cautionary tales from academia:

Experimentation and prototyping are strategies for resilient organizations—but I don't think we do a good job of systematically putting that into practice.

The @GivingTuesday Data Commons is a collaborative effort to understand giving— drivers, behaviors, and what might inspire more of it. Read about our approach to the project over the last two years: ajah.ca/blog/2022/6/16… @withwoodrow @RadioFreeAsha #nonprofits #DataGovernance

It turns out that not asking your partners to conform to your way of doing things actually pays off. Read more about our work with the @GivingTuesday Data Commons. @withwoodrow @RadioFreeAsha #DataGovernance

More crises! @team_ajah ajah.ca/blog/2022/5/12…

Since @JoyceMurray clarified that "Canada is now open by default" in this piece and @AlexBenay & his team having created the first open-by-default org, I guess I'll stop worrying abt silly things like the centralization of power at the PCO and wait times for ATI requests. #phew

Although, if Canada is holding itself up as such a model for openness for the rest of the world, you might wonder why it's not moving to make #beneficialownership information available. cbc.ca/news/business/… @opengovpart

@GC_McGee @team_ajah @pwrd_by_data So, I/we think data trusts can be good for multi-party agreements where you want to steward or take advantage of private assets. But it seems that they would result in added restrictions on the public governance of assets, thereby diminishing government's power.

@mlenc @GC_McGee @team_ajah @pwrd_by_data I wonder if sometimes we conflate public mistrust of private unregulated actors like Facebook with the data governance gaps we are aware of in our existing regulatory public sector framework.
