In
today’s fast-changing
environment, the Public Service faces increasing
public scrutiny, a greater call for public involvement,
and rising public expectations for enhanced efficiency,
quality, speed and responsiveness. In the light
of all these factors, the Civil Service College
has developed a new programme to address these
issues and equip managers to play an effective
role in the Public Service.
Today, managers have to understand
the unique environment in the Public Service
and the strategic
forces that shape it.
From there, they need to help their staff distinguish
between what they have traditionally been doing
and what else needs to be done.
A manager’s responsibility has grown from
just planning, organising, leading and controlling
people to leading people, connecting policy implications
at work and continually improving the performance
of the system.

effective manager, check out details of the Public
