This short article by John Ravlic, Chief Executive of Local Government Managers Australia, deals with the changing nature of the workforce faced by local governments and their private sector counterparts. More skilled workers are needed across the board, and with a shortage of available talent, Ravlic suggests companies and governments start looking inward by developing and refining their own training programs to better take advantage of the skilled labor they already employ. Ravlic’s piece deals specifically with Australian local governments, but the challenges he outlines and the advice he provides can cross oceans in terms of their applicability.
