How North American Government IT Leaders Navigate Leadership Changes

Leadership transitions are a common occurrence across governments, especially in an election year. Yet, perhaps not at this pace. For the first time in history, more than 70 countries will hold elections this year, impacting more than 4.2 billion people—over half of the global population. Eleven U.S. states are holding gubernatorial elections, the United States will be electing a president, and numerous provincial and municipal elections slated. Even in countries where elections are conducted freely and fairly, this unprecedented surge will disrupt governments and their civil servants amid mounting global pressures.
