The future of work: skills, tools and culture for what’s next

4 Jun 2026Online

Join us for the final session of the Transformation series as we explore the skills, tools, and culture shaping the future of work across the Victorian public purpose sector.

Overview

The Transformation Series has explored how work is rapidly changing across the Victorian public purpose sector, from adaptive leadership and hybrid work to supporting our frontline teams, and each session has helped leaders rethink how they operate, navigate uncertainty and deliver greater public value.

Now, in our final webinar, The future of work: skills, tools and culture for what’s next, we bring these themes together and look ahead to the capabilities shaping tomorrow’s workforce.

As reform, digital transformation and shifting expectations accelerate across the sector, this session asks a vital question: what do these changes mean for the people preparing for the future?

      Why attend?

      Discussion will cover topics around: 

      • future-ready skills such as digital fluency, emotional intelligence, and upskilling pathways
      • balancing digital efficiency with human-centred service delivery
      • importance of building a future-ready VPS that reflects the needs and diversity of the community.

      Audience

      This webinar is ideal for Victorian public purpose sector employees, policy professionals, and anyone interested in the future direction of Victoria’s public sector, especially: 

      • senior leaders and executives shaping workforce strategy
      • HR and people and culture professionals
      • change and transformation managers
      • team leaders managing evolving work models
