About the Course
Public institutions face growing pressure to deliver citizen-centred services under tighter budgets, alongside expanding digital-government and public financial management reform agendas. Leaders in government and quasi-government institutions need governance and leadership capability calibrated to the specific accountability structures of the public sector.
This programme builds public-sector-specific leadership and governance capability: public accountability frameworks, public financial management basics, digital-government leadership, public-sector change leadership and citizen and stakeholder engagement, distinct from private-sector governance content.
Participants leave with a public-sector leadership action plan and a citizen/stakeholder engagement strategy, directly applicable to leading reform and service-delivery improvement within their institution.
Target Participants
Senior and mid-level government officials, Parastatal and public-agency leaders, Local government leaders and administrators, Public financial management officers, and Development partners working with government institutions.
