Anna Moynihan and Rachel Healy are former public servants, self-declared policy wonks and good friends.
A couple of years ago we thought about what we wished we'd known when we were public servants - and what we learned on the way, often the hard way!
Ministers and executives are time-poor and advice to them needs to be clear, compelling and reliable. But expectations of public servants are often tacit rather than explicit.
So out of this thinking we developed our 'Craft of Advising Government' courses - where people can step outside of their work, put themselves in the shoes of decision-makers and explore what good advice and briefs look like.
Using adult learning principles, our lively, interactive and practical courses build capability in providing sound advice that’s easily understood.
Since 2017 we’ve delivered courses to over 2800 public servants in 24 government departments and agencies. Our participant satisfaction ratings are double the industry standard.
We look forward to welcoming you or your team members to one of our courses soon.
