Transform 2019 Conference keynote speaker Alecia Hancock is all set to bring her super charged ‘change the world’ vision and go-ahead strategies to the Waipuna Hotel in Auckland on Friday 16 August.
A highly successful businesswoman and entrepreneur in her own right, Hancock knows that significant and sustainable impact comes only with solid foundations – a message that she will be passionately conveying to scores of New Zealand non-profits at the annual TechSoup New Zealand event.
While cause-based organisations have some of the greatest motivations - and sound goals – Transform2019nz will tackle head-on a number of the ‘wicked’ problems facing the New Zealand Charitable sector, offering technology solutions complemented by strategic solutions designed specifically for the sector by people who understand it.
As founder of Hancock Creative and State Director of the Australian Writers' Centre, Hancock has coached thousands of people to become better communicators, helping not for profits like Foodbank WA, The Ability Centre and Activ Foundation grow their social media presence and attract volunteers along the way.
A winner of Telstra’s 2017 WA Micro Businees of the Year award, Hancock has a strong affinity for the non-profit and charitable sectors, counting brands like Bankwest Foundation, Australian Red Cross and the Starlight Children’s Foundation among the organisations she has helped.
If your non-profit or charitable org is one of the many NZ organisations with the self-awareness to appreciate the potential for technology and good strategy to radically improve your outcomes, Transform2019nz’s holistic approach to whole-of-organisation improvement is a rare opportunity to see those possibilities clearly articulated at first hand.
More importantly, thanks to keynotes of the calibre of Hancock and IBM Watson Artificial Intelligence Expert Gustavo Quiroga - alongside carefully curated suite of Master Classes in Digital Transformation Strategy, Social Media and 21st Century Grant Writing - Transform2019nz will also provide delegates with the roadmap to turn those possibilities into a reality.
About the TechSoup New Zealand #Transform2019nz Conference:
The TechSoup New Zealand Conference is a two-day interactive event that has continued to grow in size and quality. It is targeted at not-for-profit organisations who are interested in innovation, change and finding solutions to enhance engagement and impact within their communities and achieve outcomes through technology, training and improved operational and organisational efficiencies. As technology and the digital landscape continue to evolve rapidly and the competition becomes stronger, not-for-profit organisations need to continue to innovate to keep up with the changes. This is where we help.
2019 Theme
The 2019 Conference encompasses the theme of ‘’Transform” and will inspire and empower non-profits and charities to transform their organisations through technology and 21st century best-practice to fulfiltheir missions. By coming together to learn from sector leaders, technology providers and peers, NFP organisations across New Zealand can be educated and inspired to have a powerful impact into the future.
The conference is an excellent opportunity for not-for-profit organisations to learn from inspiring international and local speakers, engage and share with other delegates and walk away with new insights to help their organisation drive greater social change.
