Public Sector and Executive Trainings - Action Lab
Equip senior public servants and public-sector executives with the practical literacy and leadership tools to steer AI adoption in government—linking national development priorities to actionable AI governance, portfolio strategy, procurement readiness, and institutional change management.
IDI's Role & Contribution
Grounded in human- and life-centred design, behavioural insights, systems thinking, and decision intelligence, IDI curates the learning pathway, developing applied government-ready tools (decision canvases, risk registers, use-case prioritisation frameworks), facilitating sessions, coaching teams, and synthesising outputs into implementable roadmaps and leadership commitments.
Our Approach
Short-cycle learning models blending strategic briefings with applied clinics: participants map their institutional mandates, surface constraints and risks, prioritise high-value AI use cases, and produce decision-ready artifacts through guided sessions (workshops, use-case clinic, risk and ethics clinic, implementation readiness clinic), supported by pre-reads, real public-sector cases, peer exchange, and rapid coaching.
Outputs & Results
Measurable outcomes achieved through the programme's core activities.
