New thinking on IT*

Coffs Harbour City Council is organising the 19th Local Government Information Technology Conference at Novotel Pacific Bay Resort, Coffs Harbour, NSW, 2/4 November 2016.

IT2016 provides a forum for Local Government Managers and support staff to network, learn and exchange ideas. The program will feature key speakers from government, the private sector, online organisations, and the computer and communications industries.

Delegates will have the opportunity to network, obtain information on latest developments in IT, and find best practice solutions. Representatives of local, state and federal government agencies, and business corporations will be in attendance from throughout Australia.

The theme of the Conference is “Innovate, Integrate, Motivate”. The conference will include a series of interesting speakers including high profile Simon Waller, whose presentation titled “Why the IT Department needs to Die” will suggest that given the disruptive changes we are currently seeing in the digital landscape, perhaps the whole model of IT delivery requires a rethink?  Kristen Hansen, founder of EnHansen Performance, will present the latest neuroscience findings to create high performance and leadership relating to self and of others. Nigel Collin, founder and maestro of “Game of Inches” will ask ‘what if innovation was an everyday occurrence on every level of your organisation’?

An extensive trade exhibition forms an integral component of the conference. Don’t miss this opportunity to network with industry suppliers and keep up to date with latest developments in industry products and services.
