In this month’s episode of The Local Authority, editor of Local Government Chronicle Nick Golding speaks to panellists about the ‘New Normal’.
What have we learned from the pandemic and how will that inform the future? How will councils manage the impact of rapidly changing restrictions and ‘waves’ of lockdown. How do councils best deal with lengthy periods of turbulence in our ‘new normal’ world.
What happens when the pandemic is over? Is there a danger we lose our innovative approaches when we slip back into our natural and safe mindsets?
All of this and more is on the table for our guests. They are; Ian Thomas, chief executive of Kingston-upon-Thames LBC, Carolyn Wilkins, chief executive at Oldham MBC, and Jen Byrne – Deputy CEO at FutureGov.
