Twenty-five years ago, the technology landscape looked completely different. The mission didn't.
Dave Blackburn recently sat down with Sheila Duffy, Founder and CEO of Greystones Group, for a conversation centered on leadership, technology, innovation, and the realities of navigating constant change in the government contracting market.
As the leader of a company that has supported critical defense, cybersecurity, and infrastructure missions since 2000, Sheila brings more than two decades of experience operating at the intersection of mission requirements and emerging technology. Throughout the discussion, Dave and Sheila explore how organizations evaluate commercial technologies versus mission-specific solutions, the accelerating pace of technological change, and the opportunities and challenges that come with keeping pace in an increasingly dynamic environment.
The conversation also examines the rapid emergence of artificial intelligence and what that acceleration means for both government and industry. As new technologies continue to evolve faster than ever before, organizations across the federal market are facing important questions about adoption, implementation, and long-term competitiveness.
Additionally, Dave and Sheila discuss the evolution from traditional services-based contracting toward products and intellectual property, and how that shift can influence business strategy, workforce development, and the ability to create differentiated value in the marketplace.
For those working in government contracting, supporting federal missions, tracking technology trends, or thinking about the future of the GovCon sector, this conversation provides valuable perspective on some of the most important topics shaping the market today. From technology adoption and AI to talent strategy and business evolution, listeners will come away with a deeper understanding of the forces influencing the next chapter of government and industry collaboration.
