In this webinar Tam. Abaku (LinkedIn profile) speaks about Open Government and the Adaptive Public sector, and it is hinged on Power Skills on the PMI Triangle.

Public sector initiatives can originate from citizens, but if a government is not open there will be no recognition for civic space, and it might be impossible for citizens to have a voice in what the government does.

Open government creates the necessary framework for civil society and the public to be able to make input in governance; enabling citizens to hold leaders accountable via open data, while preventing wrongdoings on both sides.

This webinar will provide insights into the concept of open government and explain why it is a precondition for advancing an adaptive public sector. Lessons will be drawn from Estonia’s openness-by-design, and some testimonies shared during the recently held Open Government Partnership Summit.

Walk away with an understanding of the following points:

1. It is better to be open-by-design
2. It is not too late to start transforming processes that lead to open Government
3. One way the Public sector can use technology for good is by being open
4. In the context of good governance – public leadership should be open for accountability

How many failures do you allow in your organization? Is it something you try to minimize or try to encourage? And while you might claim to “fail fast and cheap,” how often do you end up doing the exact opposite?

In this webinar, we will explore how our society developed such an aversion to failure. We’ll see how 20th-century education models and business plans are designed to minimize mistakes, even though research shows that mistakes are one of the biggest precursors to success. We will see how true innovators, from James Dyson to Thomas Edison, had failure rates well above 90%. And we will compare these rates to our own as we ask ourselves, “How can we get better by getting it wrong?”

Through discussion and hands-on mini-exercises, this webinar will reveal that professional environments have a lot to learn from the commercial gaming industry, the one spot in a society where failure is actually expected and encouraged. Attendees will receive case studies and ready-to-use tools for creating fail-forward approaches within their own organizations and building a playful and fearless learning culture.

Perfect for designers, trainers, and HR leaders, this session will give you the data and tools you need to improve any project or initiative through the lost art of trial and error.

Learn:

• To identify how adult learners have come to fear failure
• How to analyze and compare failure ratios, rates, and costs
• How to use game-based thinking to create environments that increase reflection and self-efficacy
• To get comfortable creating business metrics, even when they might fail
• How to “gamify” any learning environment with a provided template
