What can you learn about the intersection of science and bureaucracy when you are tasked with merging seven government departments encompassing over 1,800 professionals?
In this first conversation in our series, Tommi Laitio talks about the importance of scientific intermediaries in government and integrating scientific practices into bureaucracies to accomplish this task. He also speaks to the potential for governments to build trust with citizens by working with the scientific community to develop trustworthy methods. As the inaugural Bloomberg Fellow for Public Innovation, Tommi provides exciting practical examples on how to bridge the divides between the fields of science and bureaucracy by sharing insights into the mind of an award-winning creative bureaucrat, researcher, and self-proclaimed lover of bureaucracy.
