Citizen today As the unprecedented recovery plans appear to be making an impact on the global economy, the attention of governments is now turning to the longer-term consequences for public spending. Our government and public sector clients are telling us that they are simply going to have to do more with less in the future. And not only that, many are looking at radically different delivery models, large-scale asset disposals and even reducing the role of the public sector itself. If ever there was an environment to stimulate innovation and creative thinking, this surely is it. In our second issue of Citizen today (pdf, 3.8mb) , you’ll find: - a report on Ernst & Young’s seventh annual European attractiveness survey
- a fascinating interview with Elaine Kamarck, former advisor to Bill Clinton and Al Gore, about innovation in government and what it will take to solve the US budget deficit
- an interview with three doctors from Germany, Italy and Australia, who tell us about how the frontline of healthcare delivery is coping under the pressure, and what the future holds from their perspectives
- a look at how the Indian government is using investment in infrastructure to help combat the financial crisis
- a look at the impact of the downturn in Latin America
- a look at the need for cost reduction plans and service transformation
