Introducing Craig Churchill

Craig's journey into public sector leadership was not typical. He didn't come up through the community sector or the public sector. In fact, he was a transport and logistics expert helping to get goods around the country as fast as possible!

Now he’s a regional commissioner for the Ministry of Social Development and a Public Service Commissioner under the Public Service Act.

Because of Craig’s private sector background, I was expecting him to bring a strong private sector and logistics lens to his new public sector role. What a surprise to find that his focus is on the interconnected nature of the public service and how the Ministry of Social Development can be an enabler for others within that system.

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

  • The value of having a strong operational leader to free up other people to explore the bigger systemic picture.
  • How to grow your partnership aspirations through small everyday actions that add up over time
  • The reality of the new Public Service Commissioner role (which Craig calls a “pub with no beer”)
  • How government can play an enabling role for iwi Māori to serve their whānau needs.
