EP#107/127: Revisiting ‘In defence of Australia with Matt Yannopoulos PSM’
Manage episode 464623870 series 2908599
In our last re-run for this season, Matt Yannopoulos PSM, Associate Secretary of the Department of Defence, maps out a unified approach for the public service to defend Australia’s interests.
In a world with increasing geopolitical tension, collaboration across the public service remains key to protecting Australia’s security and prosperity. On this episode, David Pembroke, CEO of contentgroup sits down with Matt Yannopoulos PSM, Associate Secretary of Defence, to explore what it takes to do this well.
They delve into the importance of a whole-of-government approach, emphasising the need for speed, focus, and coordination across various government agencies to enhance national security and preparedness.
Matt also shares his perspectives on the current geopolitical landscape, the transformation within the Department of Defence, and the strategic initiatives aimed at accelerating defence capabilities.
Key tips:
- The APS has always worked well in a crisis. Let’s make this not the exception, but the norm.
- Give your project managers clarity and set clear expectations.
- Defending Australia’s interests is important beyond the Department of Defence – think about how your agency or department can contribute.
