Department of Social Protection
Not ready (didn’t anticipate!)
Resistance – staff, management,
stakeholders
Fear
Public criticism
Focus on what isn’t done vs what is
done
Centrally determined (theory v practice)
Focus on decision rather than
implementation
Decide and presume!
No logistical awareness
◦ one size does not fit all!!
‘Promotion’ of change addressed to
the ‘wrong’ audience
Over specification
Focus on structures...and little else
Budget focus alone, blunt instrument
approach
Clarity of vision and purpose
Honest communication
Engagement
Shared ownership
Realistic, but ambitious, timeframes
Flexibility and agility
Risk management
Celebration of achievement
