Enhancing Collaboration for Regional Skills Leadership Groups in Meeting Future Workforce Needs

Slide Note

Collaboration is key for Regional Skills Leadership Groups (RSLGs) to successfully address the future skills and workforce needs of various regions. By fostering collaboration at the local, regional, and national levels, RSLGs can create a system that is flexible, innovative, and sustainable. Examples from Canterbury, Marlborough, and Manawatū-Whanganui demonstrate how RSLGs are engaging with different sectors and communities to identify areas of alignment and address workforce challenges. Through collaboration, RSLGs aim to build workforce planning capabilities and support local opportunities for businesses, workers, and communities.

This sort of change wont happen overnight, but it will happen , but relies on collaboration at a local, regional and national level.

Drawing on initial RSLG theming late last year, Hanga- Aro-Rau have met with the RSLG secretariat around areas of collaboration. In addition to engaging with RoVE and tertiary education partners, the RSLG is engaging with the Advanced Manufacturing Industry Transformation Plan to identify areas of alignment, including engagement and consultation.

Marlborough: regional engagement Marlborough: regional engagement The aged residential care sector has been identified by the Marlborough RSLG as having potential underemployment as well as a growing demand for labour. In mid-2021 the Marlborough RSLG held a workshop with all the key players within the sector to work through issues faced locally and develop solutions to address these issues. This was the first time all key players had been in the same room together.

RSLGs, through the likes of their Regional Workforce Plans, support and facilitate labour market dialogue within their regions. In supporting businesses, workers and communities to identify and act upon local opportunities, RSLGs can build a reputation as the go-to place for regional labour market insight. In turn, this will help expand the ongoing collaboration and ultimately support enduring skills and labour solutions that are tailored to our regions.
