We will discuss:
• How government leaders can drive transformation by providing leadership – and how to develop performance reviews that tie senior civil servants more closely to government and departmental priorities and citizen-focused outcomes.
• The role of the centre of government to empower departmental leaders by streamlining approvals for high-impact digital projects.
• The potential to link senior civil servant performance more clearly to the delivery of measurable citizen outcomes and government priorities, sharing best practice from around the world to shift the focus from inputs to delivery and results.
This session will discuss how governments can practically make the most of digital transformation investments to build more effective systems. Leaders in this session will discuss how to determine the best investments that government can make to address the legacy technology backlog, and how to determine the best projects to spend the marginal dollar of public money on.
This webinar will share insights on the extent of the evolving threats that governments face in keeping data and information safe, and the best approaches to boosting technological security and cyber security skills.
Together we will discuss:
• How digital and data teams in government can understand the frontline delivery challenges.
• How policy development can understand what digital can – and can’t – do to improve delivery of services.
• The potential for multidisciplinary teams to create shared understanding of requirements and delivery – and how they can be built and maintained for long-term delivery.
We will discuss:
• The best approaches to develop the digital skills of civil servants.
• How governments can develop a targeted programme for senior civil servants and ministers focused on strategic digital leadership, AI literacy and delivery culture.
• How governments have developed flexibilities in pay and performance management to make working for government more attractive.
This session will examine how governments around the world have taken steps to make their data easier to use. It will look at where governments have created centralized data libraries that improve awareness of available data among policymakers, and how breaking down data silos can help create citizen-centric services.
