Ep.150 The CIO Team Captain's Unwavering Passion for Victory Featuring Sindhu Menon, CIO, Harris County
It was the end of an incredible but long day of interviews at our Houston Live Podcast Tour, and we were thrilled to end on a quiet but powerful note with this episode. The room was packed to standing room only as Sindhu’s team drove across town to support their team captain, and it was obvious the admiration went both ways. Join us as we tap into Sindhu’s wisdom and experience on topics including:
There's no one-size-fits-all solution to the broadband access challenge; the complexity requires innovative and collaborative public and private partnerships
How to create team unity by aligning individual career goals with your organization's initiatives
Anticipating challenges, such as natural disasters or incidents, that require coordinated regional response efforts
Empowering your team to balance work responsibilities with personal/family commitments for higher productivity and commitment to their roles
Harris County's Transformation Initiatives
And more!
