Most public servants go into Government because we want to contribute to improving our communities – not to seek attention and plaudits. So naturally, we are not good at blowing our own horns.
Fair or not, the public service doesn’t have inbuilt promotion mechanisms for high-performers. We need to put ourselves out there and grab it for ourselves. This is especially true at key career transition points – stepping into your first management role, your first executive role or into a senior leadership team for the first time.
We help deserving applicants gain the self-belief and confidence to step up the next level and take charge of their own destiny. This is the most rewarding part of our job.
