Change starts with people...
It takes the right team to make Brazil's public administration fit for the future. To successfully manage challenges like the digitalisation of public services and to open the door for innovative solutions, Brazil’s public sector leaders must prioritise human capital development and drive cultural change from within.
Republica.org and Hertie School Executive Education have teamed up to offer tailor-made training opportunities for leaders who will build tomorrow's public sector teams in Brazil.

To navigate the path towards effective governance and an enhanced quality of life for its citizens, it is imperative that leaders within Brazil's public sector give top priority to the development of their workforce and initiate a transformative shift in organizational culture.
