Identifying the existence and impact of transformational leadership in the Australian public sector

Steve Davies over at OzLoop has just published a thesis by Dr Derek Ambrose that looks at the topic of leadership in the Australian public sector.

It is a fascinating read (particularly from pages 68-80 and 113-185 including the conclusion from pp160), and provides insights into challenges the public sector has experienced in encouraging new approaches to public sector management, innovation, appropriate risk-taking, in modernising systems and processes and in embedding Government 2.0 as business-as-usual.

I commend Derek’s paper, Identifying the existence and impact of transformational leadership in the Australian public sector as an excellent and thought-provoking read.
