Stopping non-priority spending is essential, but decisions must reflect frontline realities. We need people who understand challenges, opportunities, and how innovation drives impact—not just bankers reviewing spreadsheets. #PublicServices #Innovation #Leadership

RIP and PIP, Prime Minister. Reprimand in Private. Praise in Public. Civil servants work tirelessly to deliver for us. They don’t always “get” frontline services, but they do ask delivery experts. Get your house in order privately. Support your team publicly. Empower them to deliver with pride.

Loved it thanks you beautiful pair 🥰

200th episode is in the can. Massive thanks to @markowers.bsky.social for elbowing his way in to guest host the episode! Not least for the research you did and the questions you asked! Out soon!
