What’s In Store for 2024
Local governments in Australia and New Zealand have and need to follow suit for a more integrated approach to delivering citizen services.
The biggest element required to digitally transform operations and services is resources. Budget availability has been a resounding echo from the wider public sector across both countries, so how do you innovate with what you have? How do you leverage new skills, digital capabilities, and ways of working that better connect the internal teams of the council, as well as better connect and engage with the community?
The 9th Annual Local Government Roadshow will explore key projects, best practices, and insights to demonstrate how local government can embrace ongoing change to transform culture and provide exemplary citizen services.
