“Incrementalism” isn’t a word you probably hear very much. But it could define how your agency does business in 2013. Dale Meyerrose, president of MeyerRose Group and the former chief information officer at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, says the federal government will be dominated by budget restraints and that will give rise to what he calls incrementalism.
