GreenCourt Connections
Since 2014, GreenCourt has helped government agencies, justice partners, private-sector professionals and the general public move away from high-risk situations involving paper-based records, in-person information sharing and manual data entry.
GreenCourt Connections exists to connect our audience with the people that do important work inside courts and government agencies. Most importantly, GreenCourt Connections will allow the audience to connect with our guests on a more personal level.
Hosted by CGO Jay Bland, this podcast will explore many areas. How did they get to where they are today? What motivates them to serve the public? What are their most important lessons learned along their journey? In each episode, we engage with industry experts, government/ court officials, and thought leaders to unravel the complexities, challenges, and triumphs in the realm of public service.
