Minutes:

Councillor Val Gibson presented the Our People Strategy 2019-2024 for approval. The Our People Strategy was the Council’s organisational development strategy that would support and develop employees to enable them to deliver the services needed by the City, and enable the Council to address current challenges in a constrained financial context. The Strategy was accompanied by action plans and an Our People Employee Forum to measure the success of initiatives and update where required.
