    Communities in the enterprise

    On today's episode, we chat Amy Dolzine, Microsoft alliance relationship director for the Americas at EY, based out of Cleveland, Ohio. We talk about some of the foundational "community" elements of Yammer, where Amy started her journey as an SME for planning and designing communities within the enterprise - what in the early days was referred to as "the social enterprise." We quickly got into the value and status quo of the evolvement into Viva Engage and some of the related tech around the corner that provides additional internal communications levers - Viva Amplify.

    Fighting crime in real time

    Fighting crime in real time

    In this episode, we dig into two real-time, data-driven public service scenarios -- both about systems and people that support policing at-scale. You'll hear solution-oriented clips pulled from two episodes of the 'Public Sector Future' podcast, with show host Olivia Neal - Director of Public Sector Center of Expertise at Microsoft. First, Olivia speaks to Ian Bell, CEO of the UK’s Police Digital Service, to give an inside look into harnessing the power of digital, data, and technology to better protect the communities they serve. Then a conversation with Joseph Courtesis, former Inspector of the NYPD who helped rationalize millions of data points from multiple data sources to save police time, in real time.
