In this 4-hour session, participants will discuss:

 

• The definitions of engagement and consultation – are they the same or different?

• Opportunities of good quality engagement for both the organisation and the community

• Identifying stakeholders and understanding their different roles and influence in the engagement

• Ensuring that engagement practice is considered during decision-making processes

• Frameworks, policies and tools kits

• Understand the resources needed for successful engagement

• The relationship between internal and external engagement practice

• Different engagement methods – why so many?

• Reporting engagement practice

 

• Something you can do tomorrow to improve your engagement practice.

 

NOTE:  If working in local, state or federal government organisations, we include details of legislative requirements for consultation (and/or engagement).

 

This session will be delivered at a level, recognising that participants are unlikely to be the hands-on operatives of engagement practice, rather the leaders and decision-makers, who also determine both whether to engagement and what resources will be made available for the engagement.
