Civil Service reform: This time is different

This is an audio recording of an IfG Live Event. What makes this round of Civil Service reform different from efforts that have gone before? What’s missing from the plans and where is this government getting it wrong? The Government’s targets aren’t new, so why do the same issues keep coming up? How do you actually get the Civil Service to change? And what can government learn from past rounds of Civil Service reform?

Bronwen Maddox, Director of the Institute for Government, welcomes our expert panel:

• Baroness Simone Finn, former Special Adviser, and Non-Executive Director at the Cabinet Office
• Ravi Gurumurthy, Chief Executive of Nesta
• Jane Dudman, Public Leadership Editor for the Guardian
• Dame Sue Owen, former Permanent Secretary at the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport

We would like to thank Oracle for kindly sponsoring this event.
