Our virtual transformation roundtables showcase the work of councils who are undertaking transformation to fundamentally change their systems, processes, and skills to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of local government service delivery. Each roundtable will focus on a different Transformation topic or theme that councils have told us that they wish to learn more about.
Are you responsible for delivering your council's ambitions for transformation?
Sign up for one of our transformation roundtables to hear from councils delivering innovative change and transformation programmes with plenty of opportunities for networking, discussion, and support.
