Transforming Lives, Transforming Organisations: Unlocking Creativity and Collaboration in the Public Sector

In a political climate marked by polarization and low trust in government institutions, the role of public servants becomes even more crucial. This is where LA-BORA! gov steps in, a learning and innovation lab in the Brazilian government that harnesses the power of behavioral science to improve the employee experience. By embracing a new approach to public service, we are connecting civil servants and redefining the relationship between government and employees, creating public value for society. Through experimentation, human-centered design, and capacity building, our team helps public servants build trust, foster positive emotions, and promote collaboration in the workplace, leading to improved performance and accountability. Be a part of the solution and help public servants become the driving force behind a more responsive and inclusive government!
