The Team

We are actually a network of many teams - – at the Government of Canada, the Government of the Netherlands, the Centre for Social Innovation, and more.

The core stewardship team is hosted by the Government of Canada. While we are in a start-up phase and expect this to evolve, right now the team-of-many-talents is organized around these core functions:

  • Technical Development
  • User Experience and Design
  • Storytelling
  • Strategic Partnerships, Enterprise and Network Development
  • Data Analysis
  • Policy

We work with and for our users to make ways of working across governments and other partners great!

A Bit About Culture

The make-it-happen attitude of a start-up. The ingenuity of a social enterprise. The heart of an inspired public service. The flexibility and curiosity of a network. That’s the culture we’re living, with people from across sectors and experiences.

What Matters?

  • Curiosity and questioning what has been done before.
  • Humble listening, reaching out and working together – we can’t do it alone.
  • Friendliness and embracing the weird.
  • Action bias, and learning as we go.
  • A healthy dose of freedom to problem solve in creative ways, and flexibility to integrate passions and ideas into the larger whole of our projects.
  • Bricolage (blending many ideas and approaches including agile development, community organizing, network weaving, systems thinking and others to get great results)
  • #Digitalfirst – work how and where you need to, to get your work done and have a great experience doing it

Oh yes, and the Digital Standards.

Team Attributes

  • Passionate about changing workspaces, technology and innovation
  • Creative and collaborative, thrive on taking new directions
  • Interested in shaping the changing nature of workspaces worldwide
  • Happy in a fast-paced and ever-changing environment
  • Organized and self-directed
