Director General (Under Secretary), the Emirates Identity Authority Summary The chapters in Critical Thoughts From A Government Mindset have been grouped into three categories: (1) strategic management; (2) e-government development and practices; and (3) identity management. In the first section, the book covers ‘Corporate Government Strategy Development’, and ‘Customer Relationship Management’. In the second section, the topics covered are: ‘e-government strategies in UAE’, ‘e-government strategies in Arab countries’, and, finally, ‘e-voting in UAE FNC Elections’, a case study of the e-voting systems deployed in the Federal National Council elections in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The third section examines: identity and mobility in a digital world; data ownership; and triggering smart identity card readers’ supply chain’.
