Public Sector Transformation Awards
Rewarding UK Public Sector Organisations for their efforts in improving and transforming local public services.
The annual iESE Public Sector Transformation Awards are an opportunity to celebrate and share the most innovative practice in transforming local public services. For all of us in local government, embracing financial pressures in order to excel is a way of life. Developing new ways of working and transforming service delivery isn’t ‘just another day in the office’, it’s our passion.
No public money is spent on the event because the IESE Public Sector Transformation Awards ceremony is sponsored by individual businesses. Therefore, each winner is provided with free places in recognition of their efforts in improving their local areas.
