2007 Public Sector Leadership Conference

The UK public sector is today undergoing change and reform on an unprecedented scale. The annual Public Service Leadership conference brings together practitioners in leadership development from across public service, along with senior academics of international renown. Via plenary and work sessions, delegates have the opportunity to network with and learn from their peers in a wide range of public service organisations.

The leadership gap: going beyond method

CITI's Principal Consultant Bernard Murray-Gates presented a client case together with David Champman from the Home Office. There is considerable focus on method and management of projects, but success is still elusive. The missing ingredients are judgment and leadership. Does leadership differ in project and programme environments? Who does it and what should they do? This session looks at the issues, recommends an approach and illustrates good practices by examining a successful Home Office project.
