Dear Colleagues and Friends
On
behalf of the Government Information Systems Manager's Forum (GOVIS),
I am pleased to invite you to take part in the GOVIS 2005 Conference,
.
The conference is to be held in the
Wellington Town Hall from Wednesday, 18th to Friday, 20th
May 2005.
has
been selected as the theme for this year's conference, continuing an
overarching premise based on the past three conferences; |
|
2001 |
e-Government Odyssey |
the theory of “e-Government”
e-Government does not denote the e-Government
program but rather, IT/IM enabled Government |
|
2002 |
emerge |
collaboration of Government services via
Information Technology/Information Management (IT/IM) |
|
2003 |
enable |
practical reality of e-Government - doing it ! |
|
2005 |

|
The evolution of Government IT and IM |
An opportunity you must not miss!
The GOVIS Conference is now held every 2 years. It is widely
recognised as the premier Information Technology and Information
Management event for the New Zealand Government sector.
As in previous years, the programme will appeal to a wide range of
people, ranging from Chief Information Officers and other senior
executives responsible for information systems strategies in
Government agencies, through to the various information management,
technology, security and web specialists responsible for the
day-to-day operation of their systems.
The programme will include a mix of case studies, showcasing current
and emerging technologies, viewpoints from business, Government Chief
Executives, and end user Government stakeholders, providing an
informative, thought provoking and stimulating view of how well
Government has been enabled by IT / IM.
We are very fortunate in securing Tony Christiansen, who is considered
to be one of the worlds leading motivational / inspirational speakers,
to speak at the Conference. He is a successful businessman; qualified
pilot; second-degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do; speedway and racing
car champion; qualified surf lifeguard; gold medal winning athlete;
author and Olympian. Tony humorously shares how he has faced life
head, on creating challenges and successes along the way. His honesty
and openness, combined with a 'take no prisoners' approach transforms
his audiences outlook on life.
The GOVIS Conference provides a forum where you can gather to
participate and learn about issues and opportunities that will affect
the development of Government Services beyond 2005. I am confident
that you will gain positively from the experience we have in store!
I invite you to be an integral part of this Conference and look
forward to seeing you there …. |

E-GOVERNMENT WEBSITE WORKSHOP |
1 Day Workshop - $500.00 |
|
|
Developing a citizen-focused website - How to make your website better
serve citizens
You
firmly believe that your website should put the citizen first, but how
to do it better? How do you achieve best practice for your website?
How do you make it even better than it already is? This workshop will
help you answer these and other key questions. This workshop is about
helping your citizens find content faster, about making your citizens
feel more informed, making them feel more empowered. It will examine
important issues such as the need for a common look and feel, for
simpler navigation, for a strategy that ensures you maintain the
credibility of government content.
To
complete a particular task, citizens may often need to go to several
government websites, and these websites may be structured very
differently, thus leading to confusion and loss of time. How do we
solve this very difficult problem? Is a centralised approach best? Is
decentralised with standards more flexible? Should there even be
department websites, or would it be better to organize government
around the tasks that citizens wish to complete? Gerry McGovern has
done extensive analysis of these issues over the last five years, in
Ireland, the UK and the United States. He will deliver exclusive
research about where government web management thinking is at with
regard to the key challenges outlined above.
This workshop is practical, practical, practical. No jargon or
techno-speak, just plain speaking. You will be empowered with simple
but robust ideas that will allow you do things that will improve your
website tomorrow. Seats are limited – be in early to ensure a place.

Connecting Information Management to business
results |
1 day workshop - $400 |
|
|
Despite
an increased focus on the role of Information Management in the past 5
years, unnecessary waste and risk still occurs in most organisations.
This workshop will give you insights and techniques that you can apply
to better connect IM with what the organisation values and needs. Not
only does this lead to better results, but it also creates a
groundswell of goodwill and extra resourcing to get even better IM and
business results. We will use real examples to provide you with
mindtools you can use in your own organisation.

Flying: Transforming IT into Information Leadership)
