Program Outline
LGPro’s 2026 Annual Conference – Locally Led: Transforming Communities – is the next evolution in the sector’s premier gathering of professionals, bringing together more opportunities to learn and network across all levels, roles, and departments over two days.
Day 1
Opening and closing with important keynotes, choose your own path in dedicated content streams taking on leadership, integrated planning, customer experience, and community connections.
Leadership is tailored to senior leaders with a focus on innovation, collaboration, and transformation.
Integrated Planning takes those themes of innovation and transformation and dives into the detail of innovative service business models, rate variations and lessons learnt, geared at planners, service designers, and teams across the consultation and research spaces.
Customer Experience is for the CX gurus, customer service teams, business transformation specialists, taking on that innovation focus and applying it to collaboration, AI, data, sentiment analysis, and learnings from outside the sector.
Community Connections explores practical ways to address misinformation, strengthen emergency communication, and reinforce the human-centred approach that positions councils as a friendly, trusted source of information for their communities.
Day 2
Asset Futures examines how councils can strengthen asset planning, enhance lifecycle management, improve financial sustainability, and make smarter, data-informed decisions.
Governance focuses on emerging risks and how to create the conditions for good governance to thrive.
Workforce is tailored to senior leaders and managers looking after their councils workforce and culture.
Career Development is for ambitious
upskillers right across the sector, from early career professionals and
young professionals, with an emphasis on personal transformation.
