Government leaders face increasing scrutiny fuelled by a rise in public expectations for transparency and accountability. They must balance respect for public service cultures while increasingly adopting corporate disciplines of financial efficiency and client centricity.
Faced with complex and frequently shifting organisational agendas, government leaders must excel at motivating large teams with strategic aspirations that frame performance objectives in terms of social outcomes. High standards of ethics and governance skills must be matched by strong people skills to support effective engagement with media, community members and customers.

I just wanted to say how much I have enjoyed working with Fisher Leadership on this process. It is a first time for me in so far as teaming up with an executive search company and a group of Councillors. I have been super impressed with the effort, efficiency and approach demonstrated by the Fisher Leadership team.
