To Modernize Government Services, Code and Theory Launches the Government Experience Practice (GX)

Published

on

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — To transform how the government interacts with the public at large, Code and Theory, a Stagwell (STGW) agency, has launched its Government Experience Practice (GX). The technology and creative network has spent two decades transforming a diverse range of industries. Now, it is expanding its capabilities to tackle the all-important government space.

Under the leadership of Dominic Sale, a federal government senior executive with 30 years of industry experience, GX will harness Code and Theory’s strategic consulting, technical prowess and user-focused design expertise to modernize government services. Sale’s vision of building trust through better experiences aligns perfectly with Code and Theory’s mission to “Experience Change,” as he spearheads the initiative to enhance government-citizen interactions through digital solutions.

Sale is on a mission to rebuild trust in government by designing seamless, positive experiences alongside the American people. About half of Dominic’s career has been spent inside government, serving in the White House Office of Management and Budget and the General Services Administration (GSA), where he led high-profile government-wide initiatives, and restructured GSA’s Technology Transformation Service. Sale’s impact is evident in numerous high-profile programs, including ITDashboard.gov, Section 508, FedRAMP and Login.gov. He also served as Chief Data, Analytics and Reporting for the Executive Officer of the President.

Code and Theory’s combination of strategic consulting, technical expertise and user-centric design makes them a strong partner for federal government agencies seeking to modernize operations and improve citizen services. GXP will build on Code and Theory’s existing strengths and capabilities as they apply to serving the public.

Code and Theory will invest in top-tier talent and expand its partner network, offering unparalleled strategic guidance and technology integration. Their agile yet robust approach ensures they can swiftly adapt to the evolving, unique needs of federal entities, driving impactful digital transformations.

Co-founder Dan Gardner says: “Every industry is being transformed by AI and other emerging technologies. Government is no exception. At the core of our mission is to better serve U.S. citizens and bring the best technology and creativity to provide new and better solutions for government experiences. We are inspired by the opportunity to help make people’s lives better and to make important tasks less complex for Americans.”

CEO Michael Treff says: “As not only designers and builders, but also as citizens, it is our responsibility to add value to help make our government more efficient and effective. Just as consumers expect exceptional experiences from businesses, citizens deserve the same from their government.”

Code and Theory Managing Director, Government and Citizen Services, Dominic Sale says: “Designing more thoughtful digital experiences is one of the best ways for our government to demonstrate that it cares and to rebuild fragile trust with the public. From the moment I came into contact with Code and Theory, I knew they had that magical blend of experience, creativity, energy and technical talent to make a profound positive impact in this market.”

Opus Technologies Named Among India’s Top 100 (Mid-Size) Best Workplaces for Women 2024 by Great Place To Work® India

Published

By

PUNE, India, Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Opus Technologies has been recognized by Great Place To Work® India among – India’s Top 100 Best Workplaces for Women 2024

Opus Technologies has achieved a significant milestone, earning recognition as India’s Top 100 Best Workplaces™ for Women 2024 by Great Place to Work© India. This prestigious accolade underscores our commitment to creating an environment where women can thrive professionally and make substantial contributions.

At Opus, we recognize the immense value women bring to our organization. Our female employees consistently demonstrate leadership, drive innovation, and excel across all levels of the company. This recognition celebrates their achievements and reaffirms our dedication to fostering a workplace that empowers women in tech.

As a global authority on workplace culture, Great Place To Work has been studying employee experience and people practices across organizations for over three decades. Every year, more than 100 million employees from over 150 countries worldwide take the Great Place To Work for assessment, benchmarking, and planning of actions to strengthen their workplace culture.

In this year for India, based on a rigorous evaluation methodology, 200 organizations among India’s Best Workplaces for Women 2024 have been recognized. These organizations, among other practices, particularly excel both in people practices that they have crafted for their employees and proactively acting on the feedback to create a High Trust Culture. The report and the complete list (in alphabetical order) of India’s Best Workplaces for   2024 can be viewed on our website.

“In today’s dynamic business landscape, we’ve long recognized that when people feel truly supported and valued, businesses don’t just survive—they thrive. This rings especially true for women in the workplace. By fostering environments that prioritize flexibility, equity, and inclusion, we empower all employees to bring their full potential to work every day.

However, we find ourselves at a critical juncture. Despite years of progress, women’s representation in the workforce has plateaued at 26%, with a mere 122% in executive or C-level positions. More concerning is the declining workplace sentiment among women, signaling a growing disconnect in their work environments.

Our research unequivocally shows that when women experience a sense of belonging, they are 6 times more likely to consider their workplace great. This stark statistic underscores the immense potential waiting to be unlocked in organizations that prioritize inclusivity and equality.

As we launch India’s Best Workplaces™ for Women 2024 report, we celebrate the companies leading the charge in creating truly inclusive environments. These organizations understand that championing women isn’t just about meeting quotas—it’s about cultivating a culture where everyone can thrive.

To all the winners of India’s Best Workplaces for Women: congratulations on setting the gold standard. Your commitment to fostering environments where women feel valued, heard, and empowered serves as an inspiration and a call to action for us all. Together, let’s continue to build workplaces where every individual, regardless of gender, can reach their full potential.”

–          Balbir Singh, CEO, Great Place To Work®️ India

Praveen TM, CEO of Opus Technologies, stated, “Being recognized as one of the Best Workplaces™ for Women by Great Place to Work© India is a significant milestone for us. This honor highlights our commitment to building a workplace where every woman feels valued and empowered to lead. We firmly believe that our diverse workforce is key to our innovation and growth, and we will continue to champion equality and inclusivity in all aspects of our organization.”

Speaking about the achievement, Babitha P, Chief People Officer at Opus Technologies, said, “This recognition reflects our ongoing commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. At Opus, we are dedicated to creating an environment where everyone, particularly women, can thrive and feel empowered. Embracing diverse perspectives is at the heart of our culture and a key driver of our success.”
