Experience X³ at PS21 ExCEL Convention 2006
 
Still reminiscing about last year’s PS21 ExCEL Convention and Award Ceremony — after all the teamwork, engagement, interactions and all the fun you had voting for the team you supported? Well, you do not need to wait any longer. The PS21 ExCEL Convention and Award ceremony is back! Organised by the Ministry of Law (MinLaw), this year’s event promises twice the fun and excitement!

Mr Lee and his committee want to reach out and engage public officers.
For those of you who are new to the Service, the PS21 ExCEL Convention and Award Ceremony is the nation’s main platform for public officers to showcase and share their most innovative ideas and WITS projects. It is a fun annual affair and ministries take turns to organise it.

“We aim to reach out and engage public officers to share and learn from each other’s work improvement and staff suggestion ideas. The end goal is continuous improvement, greater innovation, better outcomes and new value creation all round,” said Mr Lee Seng Lai, Chairman, 2006 PS21 ExCEL Convention and Award Ceremony Organising Committee.

Besides the sharing of WITS projects, the organising committee also plans to up the learning value by showcasing top staff suggestions of the participating ministries and organs of State.

An ‘Xction-packed’ event
And what is the theme of this year’s convention? It is X³, which translates into “Xplore, Xchange, Xcel”.

Xplore: The convention creates a platform for public officers to congregate and explore ideas from work improvement teams and staff suggestions, and also understand the thinking processes, lessons learnt and success factors.
Xchange: The convention encourages public officers to network and exchange ideas for continuous improvement and enhancing the quality
of work. 
Xcel: The convention challenges public offices to harness the ideas shared to excel in their work and collectively contribute to bringing about a quality Public Service for Singapore. 

This year’s convention will be a one-day event with an exhibition open to all in the Civil Service. The award ceremony will be held in the afternoon.

Exhibits of the top 16 WITS teams from all ministries and organs of State will be displayed. PS Awards for Organisational Excellence and The Enterprise Challenge Public Service Innovation Awards will also be given out during the award ceremony.

We aim to reach out and engage public officers to share and learn from each other’s work improvement and staff suggestion ideas.  
 
 
Mr Lee Seng Lai
 

To enhance participation and promote learning, all visitors to the exhibition will get to share their thoughts and vote for the WITS project they deem offers the greatest learning value.
