Join us on Monday, June 15, from 4-4:30 p.m. ET/1-1:30 p.m. PT to learn how to build a social media plan that aligns with your agency’s CX goals. We’ll walk through practical steps to help you reach the right audiences, deliver meaningful content, and measure success.

You will learn how to:

• Define your target audience and goals.

Modernization isn’t just about upgrading technology — it’s about delivering better outcomes for the people you serve. Agencies are rethinking how systems, data, and processes work together to improve service delivery, strengthen security, and operate more efficiently.

But progress isn’t easy. Legacy systems, limited resources, and competing priorities can slow things down. So, what’s actually working?

Join us on Wednesday, July 15 from 2–2:50 p.m. ET/11–11:50 a.m. PT as we talk with government and industry leaders about how they’re approaching modernization in a practical, results-driven way.

Specifically, you'll learn:

• How agencies are defining modernization in today’s environment — and linking it to mission outcomes.
• Common barriers to modernization and how teams are working through them.
• Practical ways to improve service delivery, efficiency, and security through modernization efforts.
• Lessons learned from agencies that are making measurable progress.

Strong networks don’t build themselves, and there’s no substitute for connecting in person.  

Step away from your day-to-day and join us in-person to meet with your peers across agencies, to exchange ideas and build relationships that support your work.

• Facilitated networking exercises to help you make meaningful introductions.
• Opportunities to connect with peers across agencies and roles. 
• Light refreshments and drinks. 
• Time for open networking and informal conversations.

War Department (DOW) operations are shifting fast as AI, automation, and advanced mission‑tech to go from pilot mode to everyday use. The pace is accelerating, the tools are smarter, and agencies are rethinking how they execute missions in real time.

Join us online Wednesday, June 24 at 2 p.m. ET/11 a.m. PT for a practical look at how AI and emerging technologies are reshaping operational workflows across the DOW.

You'll learn how:

• The most important AI‑driven shifts redefining DOW operations today.
• Teams are using automation and intelligent systems to move faster and improve mission outcomes.
• To implement AI securely and responsibly while reducing — not increasing — operational complexity.

AI is creating real momentum across government, but it is also accelerating supply and pricing pressure across the infrastructure agencies rely on. From memory to flash and high-capacity storage, agencies are facing rising costs, longer lead times, and more pressure on already constrained budgets.

Known as “RAMageddon,” these market conditions are not expected to ease quickly and could continue into 2027.

Join us online Wednesday, July 1, from 2-2:50 p.m. ET/11–11:50 a.m. PT, as we break down what’s driving the volatility, what it means for your agency, and how to respond.

You'll learn:

• What’s behind rising infrastructure costs and what to expect next.
• How to prioritize projects and manage budget pressure.
• Ways to extend the life and value of existing assets.
• When cloud or consumption models make financial and operational sense.

Numbers alone don't inspire action — stories do. Join us online Monday, July 13 from 4-4:30 p.m. ET/1-1:30 p.m. PT for a virtual discussion to explore how agencies can turn customer experience (CX) data into clear, compelling narratives that resonate with leaders, stakeholders, and the public.

We’ll speak with an expert as they share practical ways to connect feedback and performance metrics to real-world outcomes, showcase successes, and make the case for continued investment in better services.

You will learn how to:

• Turn CX data into stories that drive understanding and action.
• Connect customer feedback and metrics to agency goals and outcomes.
• Communicate results in ways that engage leadership and stakeholders.

Delegating to direct reports is one thing — delegating to peers is another. In collaborative environments, getting work done often requires influence, trust, and shared accountability rather than formal authority.

Join us online Tuesday, July 21 from 2-2:50 p.m. ET/11-11:50 a.m. PT to explore practical approaches for peer delegation, empowering others to contribute their expertise, and creating stronger partnerships across teams.

You'll learn how to:

• Delegate responsibilities clearly when you don't have direct authority.
• Build trust and accountability with colleagues across teams.
• Empower peers to take ownership while maintaining alignment on goals.

Agencies are exploring how AI can improve decision-making, streamline operations, and enhance service delivery — all while navigating real constraints around data, governance, and workforce readiness.

The result? A growing set of lessons about what it actually takes to move AI from experimentation to real impact.

Join us online Wednesday, July 22 at 12 p.m. ET/9 a.m. PT for a virtual summit focused on real-world insights from agencies working to realize the potential of AI — and how leaders are turning those insights into measurable outcomes.

Specifically, you'll learn:

• How agencies are moving AI efforts from pilots to production.
• Common challenges around data, governance, and workforce, and how teams are addressing them.
• Real examples of AI improving mission outcomes and service delivery.
• Practical lessons for scaling AI in a responsible, sustainable way.
