matters’. We will create an environment where we are empowered, included, and recognised
for who we are and what we do.</p><p> </p><p>Defence Design is driving system change
to unlock a more effective and productive environment which in turn will enable this
change in the workforce.</p><p> </p><p>Our civil servants play an essential role in
delivering Defence outcomes and we hope that by utilising opportunities for process

can achieve better outcomes and accelerate the changes to our ways of working which
are required to achieve a smaller, more productive and more agile civilian workforce.</p><p>
