The world today is undergoing a period of unprecedented change, brought about by global ‘megatrends’ which include changes in demographics, shifts in global economic power, large-scale urbanization, natural resources scarcity and climate change, to name a few. But by far the most dramatic changes are happening in technology, digitization and science, where the disruption is exponential.
Government and public sector organizations find themselves at the epicenter of this ‘perfect storm’, and have to re-think what it means to lead in an age of disruption, carefully balancing both the inherent threats and opportunities. Crucially, they need to do so while regaining the public’s trust, and firmly maintaining the citizen at the very heart of their purpose.
This study highlights the seven key imperatives to achieve public sector readiness in this age of disruption, and can be used as a ‘playbook ’for leaders to successfully navigate through these challenging waters. Use the Public Sector Readiness Index to find out how ready your organization is to adapt.
