Fiscal Resilience and Optimisation

In times of limited resources, public sector managers need to understand how to do more with less. 

Fiscal Resilience and Optimisation is a specialised program equipping public sector managers and leaders with practical tools and actionable insights that increase their financial acumen and ability to lead effectively in resource constrained environments.  

Learn the language of finance and build your knowledge of public sector financial frameworks, including how to interpret and develop key financial statements from a non-specialist perspective. Gain new strategies for optimising resource allocation, identifying value-for-money and managing financial risk. 

You’ll finish the program ready to optimise resource allocations, plan for risk and uncertainty, and deliver maximum public value – contributing to the financial sustainability of your organisation. 

This focused online program is designed for public sector Program Managers, Project Leaders, Team Leaders and Policy Advisors who manage budgets, programs or teams but who do not have a core finance background. It’s ideal for those who need to: 

• Improve their strategic financial acumen  
• Effectively use risk frameworks and optimise resource allocation 
• Contribute to the financial sustainability of their organisation. 

Fiscal Resilience and Optimisation offers an enriched online learning environment with four live sessions supported by self-directed learning. You’ll engage directly with your peers and get real time feedback from experts. Learning is embedded through applied, practical exercises and short reflective tasks linked to your day-to-day work. 

The program features senior public sector professionals with real experience successfully managing through austerity, and leading academics in public finance, economics and public administration. 

Their insights will help you add financial acumen to your skillset – enabling you to participate effectively in budgetary discussions and operate successfully in a resource-constrained environment.
