E67: Former HUD CFO Irv Dennis on Transforming the Federal Government & Senate Confirmation

This week on Ameritocracy, host Troy Edgar is joined in Washington, D.C. by Irving Dennis, the former Chief Financial Officer of the Department of Housing and Urban Development. During his time at HUD, Irv served as the Secretary's top financial advisor and managed the Department's $48B Budget. He is also the author of "Transforming a Federal Agency", where he shares his experience leading a comprehensive financial and digital overhaul that resulted in HUD's first clean audit opinion in eight years.

Having both served as CFOs leading billion-dollar federal agencies, Irv and Troy discuss their journeys from the private sector into government, the Senate confirmation process, and their shared commitment to government modernization. One key takeaway from their conversation is the critical role of transparency, compliance, and effective leadership in achieving lasting change for the betterment of the American people.
