In an environment where transformation is an imperative rather than an option, public practitioners are facing the challenged head on.
But what does it take to successfully implement change? And what skills are needed to motivate and lead a team of people?
In our recent podcast series 'Shaping the Practice of Tomorrow', David Boyer FCA spoke with Cameron Schwab, Founder and CEO of designCEO.
The youngest CEO in the 160-year history of the AFL, Cameron believes the defining characteristic of every great team or organisation is leadership.
He draws the distinction between 'doing' leadership and 'being' leadership and explains how successful innovators become part of change, rather than directing it.
Cameron also emphasises that while some people may be born with leadership qualities, the desire to lead is far more important than natural talent and that on-going learning is the key to success.
