21. Why? Rhetoric.
“I can announce today that we are taking on the enemies of enterprise, he
said. "The bureaucrats in government departments who concoct those
ridiculous rules and regulations that make life impossible for small firms.
…...
"The public sector procurement managers who think that the answer to
everything is a big contract with a big business and who shut out millions
of Britain's small and medium sized companies from a massive potential
market."
A Politician, March 2011

23. Why? It has an impact.
“It’s becoming harder to attract, recruit and retain people for key jobs
because public sector jobs are now associated with stress and weak
career progression, as well as poor pay and conditions.”
Jane Dudman, The Guardian, 28 Oct 2014

24. A public sector alliance
We need to celebrate the public
sector as a great place to work.
A place to do fantastic things and
improve lives.
@peterkwells
25. A public sector alliance
We should not be naïve but we need to be open
and encourage everyone to take part.
Break down the silos in the public sector.
Include the private sector.
Include the third sector.
Include citizens.

“We now need to make sure the rest of the public sector find their
hearts beating faster at the mention of digital – not out of fear, but
because they know it’s our future and they are building it.”
