We kick this series off in no better fashion than a casual conversation with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Technology Acquisition Center (TAC) Associate Executive Director (AED), Ms. Michele Foster. Join us for our discussion as we reminisce how the TAC went from a small government startup of 10 people to over 150 employees in just over a decade. She’ll share the difficulty and excitement of recruiting and hiring staff for the organization, establishing all new processes, generating sufficient revenue, and building a mature organization that will be effective for years to come. Ms. Foster will discuss some of her favorite moments along the way, as well as some insights for the vendor community and our junior acquisition professionals looking to grow in their career. She will also comment on her vision for the organization for the next five to ten years.
