"Why be a public servant?"

In a complex, challenging environment - with increasing expectations from governments and community - we explore a fundamental question for the public sector: "Why be a public servant?" Looking at the purpose, impact, rewards and challenges of contemporary public service, we will hear from IPAA ACT Councillors on the pressures of an ‘always-on’ environment, the role of stewardship, ethical decision making and the hollowing and building of capability.

A not-to-be-missed honest and robust exploration of "Why Be a Public Servant?"
