In the public sector, we’re trained to scan the horizon: New policy challenges. Political cycles. Economic trends. Resourcing needs.
We’re used to a working environment where advisors give advice, decision makers decide, implementers implement. That’s just how it works, right?
But lately, it feels like the old certainties are gone.
Geopolitical and economic forces are challenging what we long took for granted.
Things that used to happen out there in the world are starting to feel closer to home.
And for many public sector leaders, something unsettling is happening beneath the surface.
A realisation that their career - the one they thought was stable, values-aligned, and relatively secure - may be more exposed than they ever imagined.
Not because they did anything wrong. But because geopolitics, economics, and political priorities shifted.
So today I want to ask you a simple but powerful question:
If forces outside your control changed your role tomorrow, how prepared would you be?
In this episode, we’ll talk about how to take back agency over your career before you’re forced to react.
