People and Innovation: Conference plus Workplace Innovation Workshop
Innovation starts at the workplace. When public sector organisations fully engage the knowledge, experience and creativity of their staff, they achieve higher levels of policy, service and process innovation as well as enhanced performance and engagement. Creating a culture of innovation will play a vital role in helping the public sector meet the complex social and economic challenges of the 21st Century.
On the first day you will participate in the Conference: People and Innovation in the Public Sector. This conference brings together advanced practitioners and thought leaders in the European Public Sector. You will be treated to inspiring keynote presentations, cutting edge case studies, and a unique opportunity to participate in peer-to-peer exchanges.
The following days you will be introduced to Workplace Innovation and learn how it creates better performance and working lives by engaging the knowledge, skills and creativity of people at every level.
