About the NMC

Alternative text

The National Managers' Community (NMC), established in 2000 from a fusion of regional manager communities across the federal government, has a presence throughout the country. The NMC is an interdepartmental network committed to supporting Government of Canada public service managers and ensuring that their insights shape the present and the future of their work. The NMC works closely with key partners, and advisory board and steering committee members to understand managers' needs and challenges, driving initiatives that reflect their perspectives.

Our mission is to support continuous improvement and innovation in public sector management. We provide meaningful outreach and engagement opportunities, fostering a dynamic and inclusive managers’ community.

NMC Governance

The NMC Secretariat

The NMC Secretariat engages with managers across the country to represent their views and advocate for their needs. It influences policy by amplifying managers' voices on key issues, acts as a key point of contact for consultations and communications about government-led initiatives, and develops the NMC Strategic Plan and Annual Report to report on the impact of NMC events and activities to the Clerk of the Privy Council.

Regional Leads:

The NMC Deputy Minister Champion

The Deputy minister champion plays a critical role in supporting and advancing the NMC’s mandate, vision, and strategic objectives across the public service. Appointed by the Clerk of the Privy Council, the deputy minister champion provides strategic guidance, promotes the NMC’s activities, and builds awareness of key issues affecting public service managers. The champion works closely with the NMC executive director and ADM Advisory Board to ensure the NMC’s initiatives are relevant, aligned with government priorities, and effectively communicated across departments and agencies.

The NMC Regional Connections

  • Regional champions

The regional champions are executives appointed by the chairs of the Regional Federal Councils and sit as members of the ADM Advisory Board.

  • Regional Steering Committees

Regional Steering Committees help the NMC achieve objectives nationwide by sharing best practices, feedback, and key information relevant to managers. They support NMC regional leads and champions in pursuing strategic goals. Members organize and promote local activities for managers, align efforts with national initiatives, and encourage participation in NMC events and resources within their organizations.
