Episode #066’s
guest is Matthew Wood, Deputy CTO, Commonwealth of Massachusetts
Department of Transportation. Before ruling the IT end of
Massachusetts roadways, Matthew grew up with technology in the
United Kingdom. Some things were the same (the quest to build and
play games), others very different (PC makers like the Alan Michael
Sugar Trading company, aka Amstrad). We discuss differences
managing when your workforce is unionized and in the public sector,
and searching for the balance between being a team player and
calling out bad ideas.
