Three of NSW most senior public sector leaders come together to discuss better ways of working remotely and the challenges and opportunities created by distributed workforces.


ABOUT THIS EVENT  

As we move into 2021, you’ve told us you want to hear more from our sector’s leaders about the world of public sector work in 2021.

The first of our Secretaries Series brings together three public sector leaders to discuss their approach to remote working in 2021 and how they think we can better harness the potential of distributed workforces. What have they and the organisations learned over the last 10 months and what will they be wanting to do differently in the year ahead?

Drawing on new research from the Department of Transport, the skills and capability insights of the Public Service Commission, and the practical experience of Regional NSW, this discussion will be practical example of how Departments are coming together to collaborate on improving the way we work.
 
WHAT WILL I GAIN?

If you and your team are thinking about better ways of working in 2021, this event will help align your plans with the priorities of public sector leaders.
 
HOW WILL I LEARN?

This will be a facilitated 60 minute online discussion with at least 25% of the time allocated for Q&A.
