Governance, Agency Oversight and Centre for Leadership and Learning Program - vote 3405
The Governance, Agency Oversight, and Centre for Leadership and Learning program provides leadership to ministries and provincial agencies through the delivery of strategic enterprise - wide policies, directives and advice that support an effective public service and enhance the oversight and accountability of provincial agencies.
The program includes the Open Government initiative to improve transparency, accountability and collaboration by giving Ontarians more opportunities to provide input into government decision-making, and by sharing more government data and information online with the public; and the transfer payment administrative modernization initiative to reduce the administrative burden on transfer payment recipients and the OPS and to achieve better value for money through improved oversight and administrative efficiencies.
As an enterprise program supporting leadership and learning, the program also provides services on recruitment and support of executives, learning and leadership development, talent management, internships and employee engagement strategies.
