Fast Track: A Six-Step AI Strategy for Local Government
More than 10% of the world’s population now uses AI weekly – proof that this technology is no longer emerging, but embedded in everyday life. As AI reshapes public services globally, Australian councils face growing pressure to harness its potential but without compromising trust, transparency or outcomes.
This webinar outlines a practical, six-step strategy grounded in real-world case studies from Australian councils already delivering measurable results. This keynote will spotlight how councils – from Brisbane and Melbourne to the Yarra Ranges and Wingecarribee – have deployed AI for savings, speed, and citizen satisfaction, while navigating ethics, risk, and workforce impact.
The six steps are:
- Assess & Align – Identify pain points first
- Plan & Prioritise – Set clear policy and purpose
- Pilot & Prove – Start small with real impact
- Govern & Guide – Ethics and transparency by design
- Scale & Integrate – Expand with confidence and control
- Measure & Communicate – Track gains, build trust
