Village summit 2024 - the premier event for village professionals

Performing For Purpose

A role in the retirement and community living sector is one that is ‘for purpose’. As Village Professionals, we are tasked with delivering positive outcomes for the businesses we work in, and for the residents who call our villages and community home.

At VILLAGE SUMMIT 2024 we will explore what it means to be a high performing Village Professional in a single day event of leadership, motivation and celebration.

As a delegate you’ll take away new ideas to create the best experiences for your communities and also build on your organisation’s goals. You’ll leave with a renewed passion for the work you do.
