As proud sponsors of the 2025 LG Professionals Governance Conference we had a pleasure of hosting an expert panel discussion “From Challenges to Solutions: Transforming Agenda & Minutes Management for Councils.”

The successful debate presented by Michelle Sandell-Hay (Muswellbrook Shire Council), Ivana Vidovich (Wollondilly Shire Council), Melissa Dunlop and Caren Marsh (Harbour Software) covered the topics of common challenges faced by councils managing and running regular meetings. What are the key issues they face? How do they streamline preparation of meeting agendas and minutes while ensuring timely cooperation across the organisation? Our governance experts shared their firsthand insights into how their councils adopted new technologies to optimise their meeting management processes.  The participants gained an invaluable knowledge that will help them elevate their council’s governance workflow and production of a wide range of documents.
