Strategies to Attract and Retain the Next Generation of Leaders for Tomorrow’s Public Sector

In the forgotten past, people were happy to have a job and often stayed in their roles for many years even if they didn’t really enjoy what they were doing. In the last few decades this started to change and now, especially after the pandemic, the job alone is not enough to sustain employees. It is about the workforce and the workplace as much as the work itself. For instance, the demographics of most workplaces will soon change with the retirement of the baby-boomers and incoming of the next generation who have a different priority as they join the workforce. …

NSW Government Service Innovation

We surveyed over 1600 public sector leaders and the results are in. Take a look at the biggest trends, challenges and priorities shaping the future of government service innovation across the NSW public sector. Last year we saw a hybrid format with 253 leaders from across the state gathering in person and 1,356 joining us online. In 2022 the event is back bigger and better, with a completely in-person program. In partnership with the NSW Government, the Digital.NSW Showcase will share detailed examples of how NSW departments and agencies enable greater accessibility by addressing the digital divide and improving connectivity …

API Design and Development: Creating and Executing the Roadmap

It is common knowledge that technology dominates our lives, and that we interact with computers or the technology within them multiple times a day. Computers power our cars, many appliances within our homes, our mobile devices and so many other unseen devices and operations. They are also used heavily within government services, and not just in a visible way. The backend operations of most government agencies are usually busy hives of banks of computers operating all manner of systems and processes. Many of these computers and systems can communicate with each other because of Application Programming Interfaces, or APIs, and …

Leadership and Workforce Management: Shaping the Next Normal

From a procurement perspective, we had to work really quickly with vendors and had to make emergency purchases. We also had to do things a lot faster than normal, making some people uncomfortable. However, in a way the pandemic came at a good time for the organization. Less than a year before the pandemic, we switched out our desktops for laptops. At the time it was a big change that was very disruptive in itself, but it ended up making a real difference. There were some working-from-home practices already in place, but for most staff it was foreign territory. So …

Evolving Enterprise Architecture Frameworks to Transform & Enhance Customer Value

In a broad sense, the EA profession works in the digital space, and that means “anything that’s technology related,” or in other words, “helping agencies to digitally enable their services for their customers.” In Queensland however this is not quite where it should be because “we are lagging behind most other states in terms of digital transformation.” Nonetheless, the state is eager to update their “digital data and ICT governance, but only in the sense that it sets guardrails and then gets out of the way.” From a governance and resources perspective, as the pandemic subsides, “we all needed to …

Building a Solid Foundation & Strategy to Enable Digital Acceleration

In the course of a day, “we are confronted with quite often a lot of information.” But most of it isn’t particularly useful. It is necessary to be able “to see what really matters.” This is where data literacy comes in. It is about “the visualisation and the interpretation of critical data.” says David Evans, Director, Business Analytics, WorkSafe Victoria The concept of data integration can mean different things to different people, but for this purpose, it means “joining, combining or linking data from more than one source.” Generally, the data needs to have shared characteristics, so that it should …

Delivering agile citizen-centred services through successful API transformation

There are many technologies that have been designed to improve our lives and enhance the way we interact and communicate, from laptops and mobile phones to smart devices and virtual assistants. Many of them are underpinned by Application Programming Interfaces, or APIs, which work behind the scenes but ensure that the devices operate the way they are supposed to. In fact, APIs are so prevalent and versatile that they are used even in fields or workplaces that might at first seem unlikely. Generally, APIs are the back-end software processes that allow devices to run, and they are regular and consistent. …

Driving Data & Analytics Excellence in the NZ Government

Across many industries these days, it is often said that data is the lifeblood of society, and this became, even more, the case during the pandemic. Data helps government agencies to better serve their citizens, which was definitely the case during the height of various COVID-19 strains, but it is also data that makes our smartphones ‘smart’ and allows us to order products online. Yet even within all that, the people who work with data regularly question what it is, and therefore aren’t always sure how to create governance strategies around it, and how it uses it in a holistic …
