2022: a year of turbulent disruptions and planning opportunities

Abstract

As the end of 2022 approaches, many of you would agree that it has been such an eventful year, full of unexpected turbulence and opportunities! We are slowly—but surely—transitioning back to the 'new normal' with interstate and international travel resuming and other COVID-19 restrictions easing. However, we have been inundated by severe floods and rapidly rising living costs. The public sector has also undergone substantial changes with ongoing planning reforms and a newly elected Australian Government.
