Policing and Public Service
Addressing our biggest social questions with choicetech
What does good policing look like? How can we measure it?
How does this police department work? What is everyone within it doing?
What choices are officers making? And why?
How can department leaders better understand and design their impact?
How can diverse stakeholders better understand and communicate with each other?
Supporting high-stakes choices and building resilient institutions
At Remake The Rules, I help people build and collaborate with their powerful information tools in ways that actually improve outcomes and decision making. And while I now work with folks on all types of high-stakes choices, the heart of my work—that we can, should, and often must understand how choictechis changing how and what we choose—is born from my experience within one of our most complex, controversial, and consequential social institutions: policing.
Our institutions are already completely infused with and reliant on choicetech
The question is no longer if these tools are changing what we think, do, and choose, but how. And for many cities and departments, its unclear how their digital information tools really work (or don’t?) let alone how they’re impacting the choices of staff, leaders, and the public, and how they’re either supporting or obstructing organizational goals.
Bridging the gap: strategic vision and operational realities
I work with police departments, cities, and other complex public organizations to bridge the gaps between strategic vision and operational realities. To see how the totality of their information systems, from how leaders think about metrics to how software architecture dictates information flows, are working with or against each other.
