Promoting the public sector property profession

As local government moves into the implementation phase of reorganisation, the role of the property profession has never been more important.

This session will explore how property leaders can help shape the future of their organisations while building the skills, capacity and influence needed to deliver lasting change.

Bringing together perspectives from across local government and the wider profession, the panel will discuss how property professionals can position themselves as strategic enablers of organisational and place-based outcomes.

The panel will explore:

• How the UK government policy is changing the expectations of property leaders
• What skills and capabilities will be most important in the future
• How councils can attract, develop and retain property talent
• How property teams can increase their strategic influence across their organisations
• What the next generation of public sector property leadership looks like

 

What you’ll gain:

Practical insights into building the leadership, commercial, relationship and strategic skills needed to succeed in a changing local government landscape, together with examples of how councils are strengthening their property capability for the future.
