How to build transformation capability at every level of government
The skills that government departments need to make the most of the potential of digital, data and analysis capabilities remain underdeveloped in many governments around the world.
This lack of skills hinders innovation and policy integration, especially outside core technical teams.
This webinar will bring together civil servants from governments around the world to discuss how to build the digital transformation potential. It will look at examples of training programme to boost skills, as well as how governments in the world have developed structured career pathways for digital leadership, to bring the profession to the same level of prestige as policy or operations professions.
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.
