When local government s most experienced and measured senior officers are warning that the cliff edge is approaching, central government really must take heed. The quick fixes that central government keeps introducing take us even further away from the certainty, stability and flexibility that we urgently need. There are steps that Government could take now to help, e.g. stop creating one-time special purpose bidding pots and instead shore up the core funding for local services. A local authority s financial sustainability simply cannot be put on the backburner. As local services erode, the risk that communities feel even more powerless and left behind grows.

3 09:00-09:20 GDPR Post Implementation, Leadership and Culture Michelle Sacks Corporate Director & CIO Boston Borough Michelle Stacks will be examining the impact of GDPR on organisations and how leadership and culture change is integral to creating the transformation in mindset required to truly implement the requirements and not just reliance on the purchase and implementation of new IT systems. Michelle will be showing examples of lessons learnt and what more is there to do whilst recognising the positives that have emerged from the implementation that may not have been appreciated. This includes organisational streamlining of systems and processes, commercial opportunities linked to DPO provisions and training, whilst working together with a team cando approach that filters through the whole council. 09:20-09:40 Solution Provider Case Study 09:40-10:00 Driving Economic Development and Commercialisation Through Optimisation of Assets Robin Porter Deputy Chief Executive & Corporate Director Customer and Commercial Luton Borough Over the last seven years 35% of the 131m of savings that Luton has delivered have been through trading and commercialisation.

So how do we ensure that our transformation plans work in practice and not just in theory? Changing the way we use technology is just one part of this if we don t transform our operating cultures we will not succeed. After all, we lead people - not technology. We buy tech, upgrade tech, procure tech... we lead people. In a twenty first century council we need new skills, behaviours and talent, predominantly using our existing workforce. After all, saying if you cannot change the people, change the people is easier in theory than in practice. Matt Prosser Dorset s Partnership; North Dorset, West Dorset and Weymouth & Portland s

A cultural celebration of a traditional Victorian British seaside resort is already underway but Great Yarmouth is also at the forefront of a 39bn energy investment over the next 20 years, the ambition is boundless. So too is our ambition to address the social inequities which exist across the Borough. This is why, now more than ever, there is a need for demonstrable leadership of place which in turn starts with confident organisational leadership. Sheila will explore with delegates the challenges of leading a place shaping agenda as well as shaping an organisation which is ready to lead. She will share her experience of both the place and the and how her belief that an adaptive leadership style and understanding the role of followers is the key to success. 09:10-09:30 Solution Provider Case Study

There are simple and easy solutions that can be delivered quickly but more complex issues require greater thought and also result in greater resistance to change. There is no simple one fit solution, so Cambridge are delivering and developing a range of measures to process low value high volume transactions to release resources to enable customer service staff to deal with the high value transactions. However, there have been successes, failures and challenges along the way.

At the forefront of public service reform - developing innovative new ways of working with partners, residents and the workforce. To deliver truly transformational public service reform it is necessary to lead, think, operate and engage differently and develop the right culture and values so that the workforce is empowered to innovate and take charge of how they deliver services. The journey to achieve a positive shift in culture has also seen the emergence of a stronger values based organisation, clearer expectations of great leadership, a positive permission culture where people are empowered to make a real difference at every opportunity. 13:10-13:20 Chair s closing remarks 13:20-13:35 Coffee and Networking Break - Event Close 13:20-14:20 Networking Lunch E: info@ahmediauk.com T:
