2.3: Culture Change
Broaden the organization's philosophy so that it incorporates additional transparency and openness with the public, solicits
more of the public’s feedback, and increases collaboration with relevant organizations
Other Information:
While the concept of open government is not new to DOI, full adoption of the Open Government Plan requires a culture change
within the Department. The organization may need to broaden its philosophy so that it incorporates additional transparency
and openness with the public, solicits more of the public’s feedback, and increases collaboration with relevant organizations.
Information that has been fundamentally held tightly internal to DOI should be shared freely (except certain sensitive materials).
To facilitate this culture change, the DOI Open Government Plan incorporates two primary tools, a dedicated leadership and
governance structure and a communications plan with actionable and measureable results. Each of these will contribute to moving
the organization to a more open environment where transparency, participation, and collaboration are a part of everyday operations.
