Developing leadership
Developing Leadership—Who? What? Where? is intended to assist in the promotion of a broader understanding of leadership development issues in the public sector. It seeks to provide readers with a snapshot of current leadership development programs and other initiatives in a variety of Australian Public Service (APS) agencies. The resource was initially developed and co-sponsored by the Department of Defence and the Australian Public Service Commission (then PSMPC) as a result of the Developing Leadership Seminar held in September 2001.
One of the clear messages from the 2001 Developing Leadership Seminar, was the enthusiasm participants’ had for case studies of leadership programs and more details about programs referred to during the Seminar. This updated volume will build on that information and provide contact points for those who want additional information.
The Leadership Development Network initiated by the Commission and supported by a number of other agencies, will continue to pursue the aims of the Seminar and to provide opportunities for interested agencies to pursue particular cases in more detail (including comments from those who participated in the programs described). The 2003 Resource Guide has been updated by the Leadership, Learning and Development Group of the Commission, based on contributions from agencies who participated in the 2001 Developing Leadership Seminar together with other agencies who have expressed an interest in providing information on their current programs.
Other agencies who are interested in participating in this resource are encouraged to contact the Programmes Group of the Commission on (02) 6271 6560.
