Leading the Charge:
Accelerating from Innovation to Excellence
It has been said that necessity is the mother of invention. Nowhere is that truer than within the financial management profession of the public sector – in Canada and around the world.
At all levels of government, financial management professionals have faced unprecedented challenges that have spurred remarkable innovation.
We have adapted to new ways of working and delivering professional services. “Lessons have been learned”. New best practices have emerged. We are rapidly moving from survival mode to a dramatically new way of working.
Now is the time to take stock of a transformed public sector landscape and lead the charge for sustainable excellence. That’s the umbrella theme driving this year’s in-person PD Week:
Please plan to join us now for this inspiring live event from November 22–25 in Ottawa at the Shaw Centre
See package details and register nowLeading the Charge: Accelerating from Innovation to Excellence is supported by four day themes that are shaping public sector priorities and best practices globally.
Each day theme has been carefully chosen through input from an extensive volunteer organizing committee comprised of financial management professionals drawn from all levels of government – including senior leaders, and various thought leaders.
This is how PD Week continues to be the most relevant and anticipated professional development and networking event of its kind in Canada: it is developed by financial management professionals, for financial management professionals.
Each day theme delivers a potent mix of inspiring and practical sessions that are guaranteed to provide new insights on achieving excellence in your public sector financial management career.
Governments around the world are adapting at different speeds to ever-accelerating change driven by climatic upheavals, pandemics, IT revolutions, and new ways of working. Their ability to adapt will have significant implications for their economy, social programs, and ability to deliver services to the broader society.
Join us as we explore the effects and opportunities of these transformational trends. Discover what is being done by public sector financial management professionals to embrace unprecedented change and find new ways to achieve excellence in a post-pandemic world.
Comptrollers have always adapted and continued to provide essential support to their departments and programs as the machinery of government changes. Never before has the pressure and pace of change been greater. Distinguished speakers will share their experience and provide real-life examples of how they’re adapting and helping to elevate and modernize Comptrollership in their organizations.
Join these leaders and learn about emerging best practices in various disciplines including Financial Management, Internal Audit, Acquired Services and Assets.
Day 3 provides participants with an exceptional opportunity to hear world-class experts address the many impacts of technology on public sector organizations. Topics include emerging digital technologies, innovation and experimentation of new ideas, methods, and activities. Leading speakers will share their experiences, how they are adapting to continual change in a quest to achieve excellence.
This fast-paced day is guaranteed to provide you with eye-opening insights that are shaping the future of the public service – and information that will help you adapt and thrive in a climate of perpetual change.
