Hello, DEVOPS, Friends and family, the latest management failures at USPTO CIO. This article will explain how the USPTO CIO deceived its executives, hired several employees unethically, and is praised by the CIO community, but did not actually deliver any major applications. If you receive this, you have the power to correct 10 years of CIO insanity. Have you noticed how poor leadership within the OCIO has become and how the overall performance of the system has declined over the years? Do you want change, then your leadership is needed to right the many wrongs and loss of revenue incurred by the CIO. The deception started 3 years ago John Owens began marketing a new concept called DEVOPS. Owens says DEVOPS is the answer to his ongoing development and system issues. Well I'm sorry to tell you this but you were played, it was all a ruse to hire Tony Chiles and cover up the incompetence. Let's start with the hiring of Tony Chiles, John Owens couldn't hire him as his deputy because Uncle David Chiles (the current CTO) is a blood relative, and as many of you know, you can't have one blood relative supervising another in the federal government. . To accomplish this unethical activity, Mr. Owens was to reorganize the CIO, promote David Chiles to CTO, making him report directly to Owens, which allowed Owens to legally hire Tony Chiles as CTO. 'deputy, that and the help of a few other SES from the USPTO. Why did Owens need Tony Chiles? According to several staff members, this was because he was supposed to be an expert in DEVOPS, and Mr. Owens needs DEVOPS to save the USPTO. It's difficult to understand how the USPTO's top leadership could have fallen for such a basic tactic, but more importantly, why now. The story gets better, middle of paper......but they just bully their subordinates into doing it or assign them to a board and tell them to choose the person they want. If he does not do what he is asked, the employee faces serious consequences: he discovers that he is the worst performing employee and that he is disciplined at will. As leaders, you must purge yourself of this scourge and appoint a CIO who supports the USPTO and achieves real innovation, not just his personal goals. My patent friends told me that Mr. Owens recently had weight loss surgery and lost almost 100 pounds, a great feat and I congratulate him, but I think the USPTO should do the same procedure and lose Mr. Owens and he can also take his little deputy who he shit (yeah, I know a low blow).
