Hey everyone—

I’m Joe Toste, Founder of TechTables.

Back in January of this year I launched a private community for public sector CXOs and senior technology leaders called The Collaboratory.

So here’s why this is so cool. The role of the public sector CXO has undergone a profound transformation.

What used to be a role focused on managing information technology now encompasses leading digital transformation and fostering a culture that can adapt to rapid changes.

Today’s CXOs are strategic partners in their organizations, guiding digital initiatives that drive business value and operational excellence.

Now we’re opening it up to all public sector employees.

CXOs are expected to be champions of change, navigate complex bureaucracies, lead a workforce spanning six generations with different expectations and technology skills, deliver digital services relevant to constituents of all ages, and not fall victim to “internal ransomware” by vendors!

That’s why connecting with the best minds in the public sector is invaluable.

Our community of CXOs and senior technology leaders nationwide and across public sector verticals is unique. The Collaboratory is a vendor-free private community designed to foster deep, meaningful connections and shared insights.

Unlike other networks, The Collaboratory is laser-focused on the unique challenges and opportunities faced by senior public sector leaders.

So if you want to stay ahead of the game with actionable advice, spot upcoming trends, or even dive into how vendors are treating other agencies, check out our free or paid plans.

We have a home for everyone in the public sector.

My best,

How will The TechTables Collaboratory benefit me in my daily responsibilities?

By joining, you’ll gain real-time access to what’s working, and what isn’t, across recent and current projects technology leaders like you are working on nationwide. This can directly inform your strategies, help you anticipate and mitigate risks more effectively, and provide innovative solutions that can be applied to those daily challenges. Most of all, it helps to know when others are going through it, too.

Is the content in The TechTables Collaboratory relevant to my specific industry?

Absolutely! The Collaboratory brings together leaders from various sectors, ensuring a rich diversity of insights. This cross-industry perspective can offer unique solutions applicable to your specific field. You’ll learn from others what didn’t work, so you don’t waste valuable resources on less-than-ideal outcomes (which happens to be one of the top issues CIOs and CISOs have confided they’d love more intel on).

Will my participation in The TechTables Collaboratory require constant engagement?

We created the Collaboratory for maximum flexibility to support you where you are at without becoming a burden. We know each month looks different. Online or offline- you decide the resources, discussions, and connections that are most relevant to you (but I'll be inside daily). : )

How quickly can I start seeing the benefits of joining The TechTables Collaboratory?

If our live event feedback is anything to go on, our members report gaining actionable insights (and emotional encouragement) almost immediately! The shared knowledge and community-building opportunities can quickly translate into tangible benefits for you and your organization.

Is there support available if I have specific challenges I need guidance with?

Yes, our community is not just about sharing random successes but also offering support during real-time challenges. Each month we build in an optional opportunity to workshop ideas and challenges together.

How can I ensure that my participation in The TechTables Collaboratory remains confidential?

What happens in the TT Collab stays in the TT Collab! One of the driving “why’s” behind TechTables Collaboratory was our desire to create a space where experiences can be shared, and things can get real, all in a secure, growth-minded environment.The TechTables Collaboratory is a private group. Nothing from the TT Collab will be posted publicly, and only current members will have access to the monthly questionnaires, speaker insights, and resources through our portal.We want you to feel encouraged, balanced, and seen, and we believe the community space we have created at The TechTables Collaboratory will become a positive addition to your leadership and personal toolbox.

What happens if I leave to go to the vendor side?

You will be missed, but your membership will end immediately since there are no vendors allowed.

What if my assistant, admin, or accounting pays?

No worries. Email joe@techtables.com and we'll set up your account.

Will my company or agency reimburse me?

Most companies and agencies have budgets for learning and development of their leaders, and will gladly want to invest in your success.
