The Present and Future of Canadian Public Administration Week 11

“The Precarious State of the Federal Public Service” (Zussman, 2010) New People New Environment New Rules New Players

How did we get here? “The past 50 years have been characterized by waves of reform through both legislative changes and new government-wide policies to respond to those pressures that existed at the time of the reforms” (Zussman, 2010: 221).

Public Service Modernization Public Service Modernization Act was passed in 2003 (Inwood, 2012: 272, 311).

Streamlining Public Sector Governance Office of the Chief Human Resources Officer was created in News Release: “Prime Minister Harper announces changes to streamline human resources management in the Public Service of Canada” February 6, 2009.Prime Minister Harper announces changes to streamline human resources management in the Public Service of Canada

New People New hires Individuals working in new jobs inside the public service Loss of knowledge and experience due to retirements

New Environment Impact of new technology Increasingly a culture of risk aversion Impact of new media Centralization of power

New Rules More scandals lead to more rules.

New Players Centralized decision-making in government Significant increase in the influence and importance of political advisors (relative to non-partisan civil servants)

Moving Forward (Zussman, 2010) Not enough is being done for new employees Employee feedback needs to be followed Deputy Ministers are a key constituency Office of the Chief Human Resources Officer needs to provide leadership Talent management remains a challenge Need for greater stability among Deputy Ministers and Associate Deputy Ministers Need to improve human resources management within departments

The Service State (Dutil et al., 2010) “The service state has not lived up to its mission” (Dutil et al., 2010: 148). “The service state must ask new questions to achieve its vision” (Dutil et al., 2010: 154). “Asking the right questions and working towards innovative solutions will keep public servants motivated to create their own culture of service” (Dutil et al., 2010: 158).

Budget season Ontario budget, Tuesday March 27 Federal budget, Thursday March 29 Students should at least observe the media coverage of the budget speeches. Even better, you should watch the speeches.
