Climate action is one of the most pressing and long-term challenges facing New Zealand. The Government has accordingly indicated that investing to meet our climate change goals will feature strongly in Budget 2022.

Join us to hear from Hon Grant Robertson – Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Finance, and Minister for Infrastructure – and Dr Alan Bollard – Chair of New Zealand Infrastructure Commission: Te Waihanga and former Governor of the Reserve Bank of New Zealand – ahead of Budget 2022. 

Both will provide insights into the Government’s thinking and speak to how the Government intends to spend proceeds from the Emissions Trading Scheme. They will also reflect on what the upcoming release of the Emissions Reduction Plan means in terms of funding for climate change initiatives, their wider observations for the infrastructure sector and what the wider, macroeconomic implications for the economy are.

Omāroro is a 70m diameter concrete reservoir currently under construction at Prince of Wales Park. It is part of Wellington Water’s ongoing work to improve the resilience of the region’s water supply network and increase water storage in the case of a disaster. The tank, which will be buried after its construction to reinstate the park, will have the capacity to store up to 35 million litres of water.

The construction of Whangārei Boys High school has been ongoing since January 2020. A NZD60 million project, it is the largest Ministry of Education project currently under construction.

Multiple stakeholders have been involved in the project and the speakers will share insight to the processes involved in building the largest school in Whangārei.

Infrastructure NZ's The Infrastructure Collective Network is pleased to invite you to a close-knit interactive session with an industry leader exclusively for our members. We call it 'The Inner Circle'. 

In these exclusive sessions, an industry leader leads a discussion with a small group of The Infrastructure Collective members on a hot topic in infrastructure. You will be participating, not just listening, so bring your questions and opinions along, find out about our expert, and what they are leading in their sector. This session will be limited to 10 people, so you’ll need to be quick to snap up your place at the table.

The purpose of this event is to focus on a culturally diverse workplace and empower people to develop their talents and skills. A range of ideas and expertise enables us to learn from a more diverse collection of colleagues. It can also boost problem-solving capabilities, increase productivity and help navigate through changing times with confidence.

Learn how to achieve peak performance without burning out in the process. 

We live in a constant state of overwhelm and exhaustion whilst simultaneously striving for high performance. It’s not sustainable and it’s why burnout has become so prevalent. That was before the global pandemic which exacerbates the level of change and uncertainty leaving peak performance even harder to achieve.

Busyness is fashionable, we wear it like a badge of honour but it doesn’t lead to high performance. But quantity does not always mean quality and being busy does not mean we’re productive, in fact the opposite is often true. 

In our modern world the pursuit of brilliance and peak performance has led to the increased prevalence of burnout and it’s not sustainable, we need to redefine peak performance to ensure we can be our best without burning out in the process. 

Auckland Light Rail and the Three Waters reform programme are two of most significant recent investments in the work to address New Zealand’s infrastructure needs.
