Thanks very much for picking it up. This issue covers a number of key themes affecting the public sector. In our opening piece, Jarislowsky Chair in Public Sector Management Michael Wernick offers his thoughts on a range of political scenarios that could take shape in the coming months and years. Also in this issue, Mark Eigenbauer discusses the implications of increased supplier participation in public procurement. Parker, Wood, and Couture write about the future of public sector work and the range of challenges facing government organizations. Marilyn Preston talks about the importance of risk management at this critical moment as we move (hopefully) toward a post-COVID era. Alexander McKenna offers an analysis of how governments can offer better products and service at quicker speeds. John Wilkins writes about the future of teamwork and contributing writer Dr. Jeff Roy focuses on national security, artificial intelligence, and racialized communities. Each of these pieces takes a forward-looking lens on a topic of importance to the public sector. We hope that this issue stimulates your thinking on these topics.
