I know it’s a biased sample, but still a good sign - more than 50% of #ipaabeta event attendees thing behavioural insights should be mainstreamed into government proper. #socinn #BX2018

Great to have the Nesta #SoCVic team back in town! Good conversation tonight with @juanfelopez Brenton Caffin and Leadership Victoria on the need for confident humility in our public service - ie the deep understanding that no single person or organisation or discipline has all the answers. x.com/States_Change/…

Some handy hints for hacking HiPPOs from our own @vicgov behavioural insights unit.

End of ‘validate’ week for #SocVic teams. 5 days of rehearsing new behaviours & new skills to take back into their projects & spread the methods & approaches into their Victorian Government departments. Good luck! Thnks to faculty @juanfelopez Brenton Caffin Bas Leurs

Thanks to @FamilyStudies Conference 2018 - thought-provoking panel on how to use #behaviouralinsights (and other new approaches #socinn) to get better outcomes for the people who matter? Nicholas Gruen on "blasting out space between the capillaries" & some great audience Qs Victorian Government

Unfortunately get the same for “I’m working on innovation in government”...

Great discussion around transdisciplinarity - and the point that there is no “right answer”. Thanks for your time and insights mieke van der bijl - look forward to reimagining the academic - government interface too...

Time for a new narrative on being a public servant. ⁦States of Change⁩ ⁦Victorian Government⁩ apolitical.co/solution_artic…

Useful insights especially in our States of Change program, where teams are working on how they can help sponsors understand their role and what this looks like in practice (hint: very different to what everyone’s used to!)

Congratulations Conduct - Family Violence Accommodation Register (bit.ly/2G6Xr9H) shortlisted for Victorian Premier's Design Awards. Another great example of Public Sector Innovation Fund in action with @VicGovDHHS, Safe Steps Good luck! Victorian Government

Kudos to Steve Hodgkinson and @vicgovdhhs for their amazing Rise project bringing neurodiverse people into the public service - talk about being proud to be a public servant! Amazing work. Victorian Government TechDiversity #techdiversity #socinn

Amazing speech from George McEnroe at #techdiversityawards - every female in Australia should check out @shebarideshare. Plus George rocks. Single mother of four? That’s impressive. And a startup founder? That’s insane.

Call out to anyone working in #behavioralscience - great opportunity to work on one of the critical social challenges of our time.... lnkd.in/gN9QTRt

@libbi_gore and @gabbywilliamsmp absolutely on point at #IPAIWD2019- how can we find lateral ways of infusing change in society and building attitudinal change Fiona Grinwald
