      <image:title>Australian Futures Project 21st Century Service Course Public Service Improving Capability - BESPOKE SOLUTIONS</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Australian Futures Project specialises in designing tailored approaches to solving complex challenges within government departments. We work with departments to understand their specific needs and goals in order to design a bespoke solution by employing a mixed model. This may include coaching, teaching, mentoring, running workshops on a variety of different learning modules such as strategic leadership and design thinking, to systems thinking, scenarios and futures, or even integrating elements Parliamentary Leaders Program. We also do embedded work with teams working on live projects in an effort to overcome the barriers and lack of confidence some participants may feel when bringing newly learned skills and behaviours back to an entrenched work culture.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Australian Futures Project 21st Century Service Course Public Service Improving Capability - LEVEL 1 FOUNDATIONAL One-day Workshop</image:title>
      <image:caption>A workshop designed to provide participants with an overview of practical tools and approaches for complex problem solving, including design thinking and systems mapping, as well as providing a space to discuss and develop responses to challenges in uncertain times. Working in collaborative teams, participants work on pre-defined challenges developed in collaboration with participating departments and agencies. This is a good introduction to spark participant engagement, establish a shared language amongst colleagues and reach a large audience (80-100 participants) in a short time frame. The course design is flexible and can be adapted to be run for one department or as a multi-departmental course. Suitable for APS5 - EL2 (or state-based equivalent), or graduate staff.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Australian Futures Project 21st Century Service Course Public Service Improving Capability - LEVEL 2 PRACTITIONER Six-day Course</image:title>
      <image:caption>An in-depth, immersive, six-day course where participants work in in multi-departmental teams to apply a tool-kit for addressing complex challenges. The tool-kit is applied in response to a real challenge confronting participating departments. with regards to either policy, service-delivery or the way government itself functions. The course culminates with teams pitching their solutions, which may be developed beyond the course. Participants are coached in how to successfully take these tools and behaviours back to their business as usual. Tools taught include design thinking, systems thinking, and rapid prototyping. Participants can opt to undertake two additional assignments to be certified for postgraduate credit from La Trobe University Business School at no extra cost. This is an immersive experience which builds cross-departmental networks for learning, sharing and support and empowers participants to confidently apply new skills and behaviours to their immediate work challenges. Suitable for APS5 - EL2 (or state-based equivalent) staff.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Australian Futures Project 21st Century Service Course Public Service Improving Capability - SES SESSIONS</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Australian Futures Project works with senior staff across the public service to help enable and embed the application of innovative approaches and behaviours to complex problem solving. This includes hosting regular SES breakfasts to introduce the key elements we teach in our Level 1 and 2 courses, to demonstrate how staff are learning to use an expanded toolkit through workshop exercises, and to co-design ways SES can provide an authorising environment for their staff to put their learning in to action in the workplace. In 2018 we are engaging SES to co-design a Community of Practice (COP) to promote cross-departmental collaboration and share learning around the implementation of innovative tools and techniques to help govern in the face of complexity.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Navigator - Taking Responsibility for Mistakes in Australia</image:title>
      <image:caption>New research found that people in Australia describe taking responsibility as “honesty”, “transparency”, and “owning up”. However, there is a shared frustration that people in power, particularly politicians, are failing on this front. While there is a higher expectation for leaders and those in positions of power to take responsibility as their mistakes often have wider implications, interviewees also say Australia has “lost the art of forgiveness”.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Navigator - Generational and Gender Perspectives on Australia's Future</image:title>
      <image:caption>New research found that women are consistently more dissatisfied than men with how institutions act in the public interest. Men under 50 are the most satisfied with institutions. Young people have significantly different priority aspirations from the nation overall, placing more value on the environment, First Nations culture, empathy for disadvantaged groups, willingness to talk out disagreements, and acceptance of those with different views.</image:caption>
