The Senior Executive Service is comprised of leaders charged with leading the continuing transformation of the Fiji Public Service and Fiji Government as a whole. These leaders possess well-honed executive skills and share a broad perspective of government and a public service commitment that is grounded in the Constitution. The Public Service is committed to deliver results, and Senior Executives drive those results.
The most enduring legacy to the future of the Fiji Public Service is the proper development of its Senior Executives. The ability of Senior Executives to achieve results can be met by establishing a strong learning environment that supports both initial and ongoing training and development of both current and future leaders.
In view of this increasing emphasis on leadership, we believe the time is right to recommit and strengthen the Fiji Public Service to developing effective future leaders. We are issuing the following guidelines to assist our Senior Executives in carrying out their agency's managerial development responsibilities.
In planning for leadership development, Agencies ensure the following criteria are met:
-
Clear linkage to organizational strategy, goals, and values. Modifications are needed to incorporate emerging trends and new requirements and to ensure continued alignment
-
Clear linkage to Government-wide leadership competencies and Executive Core Qualifications as well as agency-specific core requirements, to ensure the training provided fosters a broad agency and Government-wide perspective
-
Top-level commitment as demonstrated by dedicating adequate resources, by ensuring active involvement of higher-level officials in the development of their managerial subordinates, and by serving as positive role models, mentors, and teachers for leadership.
Integration with other related human capital management processes, such as succession planning, talent management, and performance management. Thorough training needs analysis based on an identification of competency gaps and current mission or business goals and challenges. Systematic evaluation of the extent of learning, its application, impact, and where feasible, its return on investment.
The SES Unit at PSC is responsible for all the personal functions of Senior Executive Officers (US04 - US01) which include Appointments, Promotions and Transfers. The Unit is also responsible for the review and monitoring of Permanent Secretaries Performance Agreement, management of the Overseas Travel Vote and provides secretariat and support service to the SES Forums.
