Crossing the DividePrivate sector recruits share their views on their new public sector environment |
A new report from Deloitte on the Australian Public Service titled Crossing the divide, has found that senior executives from the private sector have been drawn to new careers in the public service because of the opportunity to take on a particularly complex and challenging role with the potential to influence policy and a view that that they would ‘rather make a difference than make a dollar’.
The report was based on in-depth interviews with 40 business people who recently joined the most senior ranks of the public service - the Senior Executive Service (SES).
