A 21st century public leader

摘要

What do we need public service leaders to be like in the 21st century? Walk Tall, a new book, jointly commissioned by the Local Government Association, the Society of Local Authority Chief Executives and the Public Services People Managers' Association, helps us nail this down by using compelling stories - an intriguing mix of personal narratives, profiles, opinions and short fiction. The free e-book, curated and published by Dawn Reeves at Shared Press, is packed with great energy, integrity and a clear commitment to leading differently. The stories capture the essence of what it is to be a 21st century public servant. They are a positive reminder that, in the post-Brexit world, the sector employs people who are already creating original solutions to complex issues. Their deeply held values, positivity, flexibility, progressive attitudes and fresh thinking jump off the page.
