Book Club: Infomocracy by Malka Older

Thanks to the support of our partners at Google Cloud, we ran the second Executive Book Club on September 9, 2021 with Malka Older, author of Infomocracy. She’s a prolific writer, and her background as an aid worker has informed her understanding of government, societal organization, and sociology.

After brief introductions, Malka gave us a quick recap of the main ideas in the book. While we don’t publish recordings of Book Clubs in order to encourage free conversation, here’s how Malka opened up our discussion.

From time to time, we run Book Clubs to discuss the latest in digital transformation and public sector innovation with fellow leaders and noted experts. Each session is a candid online conversation, in which we cover a brief synopsis of a book and its key ideas, followed by an open peer discussion with the author.
