Yes, managing projects in the public sector sometimes feels like an exercise in identifying every risk at project initiation, in the private sector it feels like you have stand up for having a robust plan rather than just doing stuff.
I'd say I've seen some really skillful front line practitioners in the public sector, duty managers in child protection are the best example. In the private sector some of the people in technical roles are unbelievably good, I met an aerodynamic specialist at BAe on a course, I'd flown in to Glasgow and I said when I think about the weight of as plane it sometimes feels like getting plane in the air is a risk. At lunch he drew me some calculations that indicated that getting a commercial plane n the air does not have much margin |

I agree with most of that.
Iād add that some of the issues in the public sector are down to hyper accountability which is counter productive. |
The last sentence is spot on and leads back to what I said earlier about "top down" management.
I'd want to be a manager if I was actually allowed to do it. Given an office and a list of targets and free reign in how to achieve them. That simply doesn't happen in the Public Sector. [Post edited 27 Jun 7:56]
