South Australia is still in the midst of a horrendous drought. Water and its conservation are critical issues facing the state and in particular SA Water.
After previous roles of Deputy Chief Executive of the Department of Administrative and Information Services, and Chief Executive of Services SA, Anne Howe stepped into the position of Chief Executive of SA Water in 2000, backed by considerable experience in developing partnerships between the public and private sectors.
 Anne brings an interesting perspective to a role within a highly scrutinised public utility as one of only a handful of female Chief Executives, previous President of IPAA and grandmother of two.
IPAA welcomes Anne as our next guest On The Couch. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from Anne as she candidly discusses her progress through the public sector, from social worker to Chief Executive, and her experiences dealing with Government hierarchies. This is a chance for you to find out what it takes to make it in the public sector while networking across all levels of government.

Anne Howe, Chief Executive Officer, SA Water| | | | Cost (inc. GST): | | | | IPAA Members: | $40.00 | | Corporate Members: | $50.00 | | Non-Members: | $65.00 |

Despite narrowly avoiding a technical recession, the National and State economies are still facing an uncertain future. While Department funding levels are not rising, demand on public services stemming from rising unemployment is increasing. This is accompanied by an expectation that it is the State’s responsibility to maintain service levels in a downturn without increasing taxes.
 The practical effect of this is the Public Service has to do more, with less. The Hon. Jay Weatherill MP is IPAA’s guest to discuss how the Public Sector can work smarter, not harder; how we can continue to deliver high quality service in a period of downturn and the importance of team culture and staff morale in doing this. As the Minister Assisting the Premier in Cabinet Business and Public Sector Management, the Minister’s presentation is aimed across all levels of the Public Sector with a continuing interest in supporting the South Australian community through this downturn and into recovery.

Commissioner of Police, Mal Hyde joins IPAA as our next guest On The Couch to discuss what is really important to him personally and professionally and why he feels so compelled to reform and improve the criminal law for all South Australians. This is a rare opportunity to discuss candidly the life, passion and struggles of a man whose influence shapes criminal law and impacts our everyday lives more broadly then we think.
 Mal leads a department of over 5,000 employees to maintain order as criminal activities evolve, change shape and become increasingly sophisticated. Throw into the mix community expectation of continued law reform and debate over the role of the criminal legal system in rehabilitation, and we are sure to hear some lively discussion.
Mal took on the role of Commissioner of Police in early 1997 and has held his ground firmly on strong and decisive action on issues such as car hoons, bikie gangs, violent robberies and illicit drugs. The result has been a broad reduction in victim reported crimes and higher then national average confidence in the SA Police.
Keynote Speakers:
Mr Mal Hyde, Commissioner of Police, South Australia
