For The Regulatory Craft in

Cultural change specific to public servants
  • My keynote is not to pretend to know the
    solutions to your issues. You have the expertise
    of Professor Sparrow and other experts to walk
    you down that path.
  • My task over the past 35 years has been to
    provide information that will motivate you to
    fully function as a public servant to innovate
    and to create and adapt to change.

3
Nurture your thoughts, for you will never go
higher than your thoughts. Benjamin Disraeli

A person who knows how may always have a job, but
the person who knows why will always be his/her
boss. John C. Maxwell, Thinking for a Change,

  • The Past
  • The Present
  • The Future

REGULATIONS are a discipline by itself
  • The purposes for regulations, and compliance,
    can include
  • Protect the publics interest
  • Environmental and workforce safety
  • Prevent market failure
  • Reduce potential for fraudulent activity
  • Promote markets which are fair and orderly
  • Provide service standards
  • Bring to justice those who fail to comply and
    try to outsmart the government
  • And more.

10
Fundamental assumptions are responsible for
the most troublesome and frustrating issues
people have to deal with in bringing about change
in their organizations.
11
Great ideas often receive violent opposition from
mediocre minds Albert Einstein
12
Successful Change should never be measured by
an increase or decrease in regulations! (See
examples of deregulating airlines, long distance
telephone carriers, and more regulations on
healthcare, etc.)
13
Individuals may form communities, but it is
institutions alone that can create a nation.
Benjamin Disraeli
14
You must begin to see your role as an
institution of change. You must start being
excited again about being public servants and
having the privilege of shaping the future of
Canada as policy makers.

KEEP IT SIMPLE!

How does one measure success?
19
Success is measured by
  • Individual participation
  • Relevant internal changes
  • Taking ownership of your position and
    responsibilities
  • The excitement the change creates
  • The fact that the change/innovation is based upon
    sound facts and/or research.

20
Destructive thinking If it wasnt created at
the top, it isnt of any value!
  • I invite you to recall Professor Sparrows
    concept of serendipitous ideas for change
    bubbling up from the ranks and that we would
    be better served to require innovations
    constructed carefully around strategic goals.

21
YOU CANT CHANGE ANYTHING THAT YOU TOLERATE

Virtually every organization today is being
forced to rethink basic assumptions governing
their strategies, the way they organize
themselves, their work processes and composition

doing small things, so the that all the small
things go in the right direction.
