Public Sector Leadership Conference 2009
Building Community Capacity: Partnerships for Progress
The Australian Government Leadership Network (WA), invites you to our Public Sector Leadership Conference 2009 at The University Club, UWA Nedlands, on Tuesday 9 June 2009
The theme for this conference is Building Community Capacity- Partnerships for Progress, which has been identified most recently by the APS Commissioner in her State of the Service Report presentation in Perth as one of the important current challenges for the APS.
The Public Sector Leadership Conference has been organised annually by the APS Commission and the Regional Directors’ Network for some years. This year’s conference is the first to be presented under the banner of the recently-established national Australian Government Leadership Network. The Western Australian Network members of the conference planning sub-committee have identified the conference theme as being of significance to all Network members and have had significant input into the choice of venue and the identification of presenters.
