Driving Strategic, Digital, and Sustainable Transformation Across Ireland’s Public Service

This year our theme - Procure to Deliver: Driving Strategic, Digital, and Sustainable Transformation Across Ireland’s Public Service, will bring together international experts, senior government officials, industry leaders, legal specialists, and academics for a morning of insights, debate, and practical takeaways..

While this session places climate strategy under the lens, the insights and approaches shared in our Communication is King are applicable across all strategic objectives, helping public service leaders translate policy into action and embed joined-up thinking across any complex initiative.
The session will focus on the role of communication as a tool of leadership and governance, demonstrating how clear, coordinated, and authoritative messaging drives strategic action from top -down, secures buy-in from bottom-up, and translates policy into meaningful outcomes. Attendees will gain practical insights into fostering joined-up thinking, promoting consistency across organisations by sharing successes and lessons learned, embedding priorities across teams, and leveraging communication to turn strategy into tangible results.

Hosted by PAI, the 2026 Women in Leadership Networking event brings together inspirational thought leaders, industry experts, academics, and public sector professionals to spark meaningful conversations and practical solutions.
