The Australian Public Service is under pressure to do more with less — modernise faster, serve employees better, and govern emerging technology responsibly. But what does that actually look like inside a federal department?

In this fireside chat, William Scheer, CEO of Reason Group, sits down with Simone Boulding, Senior Executive at the Department of Industry, Science and Resources (DISR), for a candid conversation about how DISR is turning that pressure into tangible outcomes with ServiceNow.

Drawing on real delivery experience, the discussion will span three areas of transformation: mission productivity, corporate productivity, and AI governance.

Honest, practical and grounded in experience, this session is essential viewing for APS leaders navigating their own modernisation journey — and looking for proof that it can be done at pace.
