The Mandarin Live: Future Ready Public Service Queensland
About this Event
IPAA Queensland is pleased to support The Mandarin and The Hatchery for this critical strategic forum. Building a future-ready public service demands more than policy ambition; it requires resilient systems, trusted institutions, and leaders who can deliver under sustained pressure.
This Summit brings together Queensland’s senior public sector leaders to examine how government must evolve to meet growing citizen expectations, manage intersecting crises, and deliver at scale in the lead-up to 2032 and beyond.
