Podcasts about public servants

In this candid and compelling episode, Alex Benay and Karen Figuerola share an unfiltered look at the cultural and systemic issues behind Canada's HR and pay challenges—and the bold transformation underway to fix them. From the $7 billion Phoenix failure to the rollout of Dayforce, Alex explains why fixing the tech alone isn't enough. True change, he argues, starts with shifting behaviours, embracing radical transparency, and putting people at the centre of every decision. With real talk on AI, automation, executive accountability, and the power of user-centred design, this episode is both a wake-up call and a roadmap for leading transformation in the public sector. If you care about meaningful change, leadership that's unafraid to fail, and building systems that simply work, you won't want to miss it.

Even though New Jersey freshman Senator Andy Kim has already served three terms in the House of Representatives, he still primarily sees himself as a life-long public servant rather than a politician. Prior to becoming a member of Congress, Kim served at USAID, the Pentagon, the State Department, the White House National Security Council, and in Afghanistan as an advisor to Generals Petraeus and Allen. The proud son of South Korean immigrants, Senator Kim also has the distinction of being the first Asian American that New Jersey has elected to the Senate, and the first American of Korean ancestry to be a senator. Many people in the world first came to know about him when a photo of him cleaning up the Rotunda of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, went viral.

In this episode of the A is for Architecture Podcast, architect, scholar and author Tom Spector discusses his book, Architecture and the Public Good, first published by Anthem Press in 2021, and now out in paperback.Tom's critical and philosophical exploration of the ethical foundation of the architecture profession and its role in serving the public, confronts the persistent tension within architecture between artistry and public service, arguing that this dual identity often undermines the profession's ability to clearly articulate and fulfil its moral obligations. Arguing that the discipline holds on to an inaccurate concept of the public, arguing that the term is too often treated as a monolithic, abstract concept, Tom urges a deeper understanding of publicness, one that accounts for pluralism, participation, and the political nature of public space and infrastructure.It is a proper decent book, and whilst fundamentally a critique, Tom's presentation is one of hope and possibility. This is what we need, believe. Linked above is the book.

New reports reveal AI is seeing wider use across public and community services. The Public Service Association surveyed more than 900 of its members, with 55 percent of respondents saying AI is used at their place of work. Of this number, 45 percent admitted using it personally. PSA national secretary Kerry Davies says the increased use of AI isn't the key issue here - but the lack of training and guardrails is cause for concern. "AI in itself isn't so much the issue - it's the use of AI without proper supports and without proper training." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A census sent out to all government workers is wider reaching than simply identifying cost cutting advice. Thousands of public servants across all agencies have been asked in a census to identify taxpayer value in their work and any changes needed, with results expected in July. The survey's done every five years. Public Service Minister Judith Collins told Mike Hosking how to save money is just one of many focuses. She says it also asks about concerns people have around any unacceptable sexual harassment and bullying, adding it's therefore a two-way exercise.

Felicia Marcus is one of the most significant public servants in water, having served on the Board of Public Works for the City of LA, served as Regional Administrator for the EPA in Region 9, COO of the Trust for Public Land and Western Director of the NRDC. As if that wasn't enough, she was also the Chair of the State Water Resources Control Board of California during the business end of the 2011-2017 California drought, which was rather scary and is now taking a “breather” as a Fellow at Stanford's “Water in the West Program”. Felicia is delightful, the speed of her mind matched only by the quality of her communication. We're so lucky to have such extraordinarily dedicated people who choose service when they could be doing a lot of different things, and the water sector is so much better off for it.
