After 164 episodes, we bid farewell to Work with Purpose. Marking this special occasion, IPAA ACT CEO Kate Driver turns the microphone around on host David Pembroke, CEO of contentgroup, and one of the podcast’s first guests, IPAA National President Andrew Metcalfe AO.
On the final episode before its hiatus, David and Andrew look back at over 160 stories told on Work with Purpose – starting with unpacking the government’s COVID-19 response. Together, they reflect on a podcast born out of a desire to let leaders speak clearly and without interruption, helping build confidence and understanding during a national crisis.
David and Andrew explore what has changed since the podcast began, highlighting the rapid acceleration of technology, particularly artificial intelligence, alongside enduring themes such as relationships, integrity, trust and the craft of public service.
Looking forward, they predict that integrity will remain one of the most important conversations for the sector, especially in light of failures such as Robodebt. They also encourage young people to seek careers in the public sector, and for the sector to in invest in its emerging leaders.
To our listeners and guests – thank you for lending us your ears and your ideas over the past six years. It’s been a pleasure.
