THE PUBLIC SERVICE OF THE FUTURE

Monday, May 11; 2:00 to 2:45 pm ET

COVID -19 has highlighted for all, the tremendous value of government and the public service in all orders of government. The federal government and public service have pivoted at high speed to design and deliver major new programs. With the workplace restrictions, public servants have all had to change how they work, as most are now working remotely, while still delivering the service required of them.

– What does this mean for the short term and the long term of government?
– How does this change what is expected and what can be done by the public service of the future?
– How do we attract the next generation of public servants?

Panelists:

Debi Daviau, President, Professional Institute of the Public Service of Canada

Michael Wernick, Former Clerk of the Privy Council

Lynda Tarras, Former Deputy Minister and Head, Public Service Agency, British Columbia
