Recommendations 1.Collaborate (i.e. Tactical Tech etc.), seek advice (i.e.

external advisory board) and use existing standards, tools and platforms

2. Design services to be accessible, user-centered and demand-driven

3.Think digital and open by default, but evaluate potential implications (i.e. data protection)

4. Leave room for innovation and experiments (also internally), but don’t mistake development endeavours with a tech startup idea

5.Support your staff, take responsibility on a leadership level and help knowledge to spread (thoughout decentralised structures)
