Speaker Spotlight: Dr Tobias Feakin, Ambassador for Cyber Affairs and Critical Technology
Our priorities in 2021 include engagement on standards, critical technology supply chains and ensuring states understand their obligations to act responsibly in cyberspace. Ultimately, we face a future where our values are not upheld or respected by technology, and our prosperity, security and social cohesion is at risk if we don’t take action now. Our international engagement must continue to advocate for a cyberspace and technology that is in our interest, and that of our likeminded liberal democratic partners. However, the hardening of networks alone is not enough to protect Australia’s national security interests. This is why the Australian Government, …

Sustainable IT Service Management (ITSM) for the Public Sector
Government departments and organisations are ideally about providing services to citizens. Obviously, they are mostly about implementing the work of the government, but if that can be achieved in a way that benefits the citizens too, then that is the ultimate aim. To achieve the dual goals, Revenue NSW began the “Assured Revenue program, which has three goals:” The program is designed to “remove friction across the system” and began in September 2020. Since then, Revenue NSW has “conducted 54 interviews and 13 workshops with individual and business customers across NSW, other part of Australia and even overseas,” including with …

Building Resiliency in an Increasingly Complex and Uncertain Environment
This is particularly important for a department like TMR, which has responsibility across the vastness of the whole state. TMR looks after “over 33,000 km of state-controlled roads,” including bridges, as well as all “bus, rail, ferry and tram services.” It employs over 9,600 people, has about 100 offices or locations across the state, including “90 customer service centres.” It’s a big and complex department that is referred to internally as “an ecosystem rather than just a department.” Disaster management is part of the mandate, and in 2020, TMR spent “nearly $87 million on natural disaster recovery and repairs,” much …

Leveraging data science to lead transformation in the public sector
While many of these issues are unlikely to go away, one way of combatting some of the negative effects is by using open data, which as long as there is access to the internet, is “data that’s available to anyone, anywhere, anytime.” It is generally data that is “collected by or on behalf of government,” but is done so with “people’s privacy, sovereignty and security” protected and in mind. In many ways, “the open data ecosystem is like a public library, which is the original open data service.” Libraries have a range of products “in different formats, with a huge …

How SafeWork SA went from surviving to thriving with the help of The Oranges Toolkit
In 2017 when Martyn Campbell became Executive Director of SafeWork SA, the government agency responsible for workplace health and safety regulation and enforcement in South Australia, it was experiencing significant challenges both internally and externally. Martyn needed to lead a cultural change program across the organisation that caused major upheaval and uncertainty. To effectively enable change adoption amongst the established workforce, he recognised the need to build resilience, trust, and create psychological safety. He chose to engage the services of The Oranges Toolkit to build mental and emotional agility through its wellbeing workshop program and credits the unique program as …

How Client Centric, Digital Public Sector Services Improve NSW Citizen Experience
Innovation is a word not often directly correlated with government services. Due primarily to challenges around size, scope, budgets, bureaucracy, general risk-aversion and public scrutiny, the public sector is often regarded as slow moving. As governments strive to balance priorities and the allocation of scarce resources, new approaches are needed. The public sector needs to be increasingly innovative and to work smarter to effectively respond to the complex challenges facing society now and into the future. In this whitepaper we explore these digital service delivery priorities and delve into why they’re crucial to the future of public sector innovation.

How can we Change the Perception of Governance and Risk Management?
When someone says ‘governance’ or ‘compliance’ immediately our minds turn towards red tape, rules, regulations and bureaucracy. But that’s not necessarily the case. In fact, when integrated strategically, and supported by a culture of integrity corporate governance can help to mitigate risks, assure compliance and enable your department to achieve goals and drive improvements all while improving ethical standing in the eyes of citizens. Achieving this is often a complex process however that requires a reassessment and appraisal of current and future operating processes as well as a cultural transformation to help educate and bring the entire organisation on board. …

Mitigating Cyber Security Risks in Local Government
"Implementing effective information controls and cyber training for staff should be at the forefront of cyber awareness for councils. This requires councils to establish appropriate systems to manage cyber security risk effectively, and to make better and more informed decisions.” Jacqueline Hiddlestone, IT Innovation Program Manager, Canterbury Bankstown City Council (NSW) “Councils need to establish a system to process, identify, analyse and treat cyber security risks seriously. If unaddressed, cyber risks could prevent councils from effectively achieving their strategic, operational and project objectives, as well as their statutory and community obligations.
