IMPOWER Consulting’s Post

‘Innovation including AI is central to the future of public services.’ Today, we held the fourth and final roundtable as part of our 'Heart of the matter - getting to grips with whole place transformation' research project with Localis (think tank). The discussion focused on the role of analytics, AI and innovation in #localgovernment, and how it can be leveraged to enhance #publicservices and financial sustainability. Thank you to our attendees for a rich and diverse discussion. Achieving better outcomes for our citizens was the golden thread, aptly summed up by one attendee: ‘The ultimate aim of AI should be free up more time and capacity for humans to be talking to other humans, enabling public sector colleagues to take a wholly person-centred approach.’ Jon Ainger Theo Blackwell MBE Philip Clifford Local Government Association Piali Das Gupta Joe Garrod John P.
