Many Taituarā members have benefited from the programme and through this professional, personal and cultural experience. Most have gone back to their local authorities inspired and armed with a better perspective and increased knowledge of local government. Exchange recipients are surprised how similar the challenges faced by their overseas colleagues are to their own.
These exchanges are offered with the support of our sponsors AskYourTeam, Civic Financial Services, and Marsh.
Each exchange involves a hosted visit to the destination country and the reciprocal hosting of a visitor from that country during the time period of Taituarā Conference 2023.
The Overseas Manager Exchange Programme is one of a range of Taituarā initiatives that provide leadership and development opportunities specifically tailored to the local government environment.
Applications for Overseas Manager Exchanges have now closed. We look forward to announcing 2023's winner at our Gala Dinner on 8 June 2023. Book your place at the Gala Dinner now.
