8.1: Idea Sharing
Move toward an idea sharing and discovery model. Other Information:
USDA’s open governance model begins with ideas. In the past, ideas tended to flow from internal stakeholders and a limited
group of external stakeholders. Open Government forces the Department to rethink the way it processes ideas. USDA is moving
toward an idea sharing and discovery model. This model makes significant improvements to the way we involve the external community
and internal stakeholders. Idea sharing is at the heart of this new model. It includes innovative ways of soliciting, collecting,
and moderating input from all stakeholders. Revamped processes and capabilities are required to facilitate these idea generating
mechanisms. New processes and capabilities must enable ideas to flow across communities and agencies resulting in improved
ideas as candidates.
