Behind the Mic, Episode 1In this first Behind the Mic bonus episode, we take listeners behind the scenes of IPAA Insiders Season 1, exploring why the podcast was created, how the conversations were shaped, and what resonated most strongly with the public sector community.Host Jo Rose is joined by Megan Maletic, previous Lead Consulting Partner at Deloitte for the NSW Government and public services sector, and IPAA NSW President Mark Webb, alongside other Season 1 contributors. Together, they reflect on the intent behind the series, the value of sourcing questions directly from members, and the importance of creating space for diverse voices from across and beyond the public sector.The conversation highlights key themes that emerged throughout the season, including transferable skills, solution focused thinking, leadership at every level, and navigating uncertainty with purpose and confidence. Jo and Mark also reflect on listener feedback, particularly from early and mid career public servants, and discuss what success looks like over the long arc of a public sector career.The episode also looks ahead to Season 2, touching on emerging areas of interest such as future skills, trust in public institutions, psychological resilience, and the evolving relationship between technology and human centred work.Rather than offering definitive answers, this episode reinforces the value of curiosity, connection, and collective learning. It captures the spirit of IPAA Insiders as a platform for sharing experience, celebrating diversity of thought, and supporting public servants at every stage of their career.Whether you’re a long time listener or new to the series, this Behind the Mic episode provides context, reflection, and a strong foundation for the conversations still to come.SHOW CREDITS Host: Jo RoseWriters: Alessia Campagna, Nicola Hardy and Jo RoseProducer and Editor: Alessia CampagnaTechnical Producer: Anthony WatsonExecutive Producers: Jo Rose and Nicola Hardy Music Credits: Let The Good Times Roll: Music from #Uppbeathttps://uppbeat.io/t/ra/let-good-times-rollLicense code: DNAIHKYCKOUU6HBT Enchanted Puzzle: Music from #Uppbeathttps://uppbeat.io/t/andrey-rossi/enchanted-puzzleLicense code: YTN0OYX8RBDDUQ73 Easy Flow: Music from #Uppbeathttps://uppbeat.io/t/hybridas/easy-flowLicense code: R2FTWOYRCB7YOW21Not That Easy: Music from #Uppbeathttps://uppbeat.io/t/soundroll/not-that-easyLicense code: MYQOVXXWAFZULECH On Tiptoes: Music from #Uppbeathttps://uppbeat.io/t/soundroll/on-tiptoes We would like to acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which the podcast is taking place today.
