A Single Performance Measurement Approach
For All Local Government Frameworks.
Hi ,
Do you work in local government in Australia?
If you do, then you might like to be aware of our next PuMP training, exclusively for local government.
If your Council is struggling with how to build a measurement system that supports delivery of its strategic plan, developing annual budgets and demonstrating community outcomes, here's your chance to learn how.
Previous attendees from last year's workshop agree:
"It's hard to find a cost-effective way of meaningfully measuring progress in the local government sector. PuMP Certification delivered on its promise of delivering the tools I need. The training was well paced, designed to perfection to challenge but not overwhelm, and value for money. [PuMP] has provided me with the knowledge, resources, support, and most importantly the confidence, to take the next step. And I have! My vision for what I need to do next
feels clear, realistic, and achievable." - Anna, Manager Strategy & Performance, Australia
"Honestly I heard about this training from my colleague and was really looking for something to help untangle my thoughts about performance measurement... The training has really clarified how to develop and use meaningful measures. I have often wondered about how all our reports, dashboards etc can feed together. This completely answered that question for me. It means that I have confidence in my understanding of and a process to support performance
measures. Its great!" - Anonymous, Local Government, Australia
PuMP takes complexity out of measuring in local government
Local government doesn't need more complexity. It needs a straightforward measurement approach that works everywhere, all the time, with any framework. And PuMP is that straightforward measurement approach. [For an overview of PuMP, click here go to our PuMP for Local Government page.]
Over nearly 20 years, hundreds of people from local councils around Australia have come to use PuMP. And this has enabled us to tailor the PuMP workshop more specifically to local government's needs:
- integrating measurement with the local government structure, at the same time as connecting with our communities
- aligning measurement to support local government frameworks, like Integrated Planning & Reporting and Service Planning
- linking every activity, output, outcome and impact together in a single underlying measurement framework
- collaborating across council boundaries, both internal and external, to reduce rework and effort in measuring what matters
- balancing internal and external measures, for external reporting to stakeholders and for internal learning and improvement
"I was first introduced to Stacey Barr and her PuMP philosophy almost 20 years ago when I was in local government and we were struggling to understand our progress towards achieving our corporate and strategic outcomes. PuMP is simple, logical and so effective that my team and I used it in the development of all our corporate strategies at Gold Coast City Council and it is still used there today." - Steve Varady, Australasian Reporting Awards
