We’re thrilled to welcome Leanne Robb to the Social Pinpoint Australia team. With over 25 years of experience in community engagement across sectors including government, utilities, health, and education, Leanne’s career has been guided by a core belief: the best decisions are made when communities are at the heart of the process.
Leanne has led engagement for projects of varying complexity, always ensuring that community voices shape outcomes. She’s witnessed how thoughtful engagement builds trust, fosters transparency, and results in decisions that truly reflect the needs of those impacted.
Community engagement isn’t just about listening,” Leanne explains. “It’s about integrating insights into decision-making, fostering inclusivity, and ensuring that every voice is heard, especially those who might otherwise be marginalised. I have seen how a community-first approach can transform not just projects, but entire organisations.”
Leanne offers a wide range of Professional Development opportunities in both traditional and digital community engagement. She provides mentoring, coaching, strategic advice, and training to emerging practitioners—empowering them to think strategically and engage meaningfully with their communities. Leanne is also a licensed Trainer with the Engagement Institute, helping equip individuals and organisations with the knowledge and skills to develop, deliver, and lead effective engagement processes.
What excites me about this work is not just the impact it has on communities, but the opportunity to collaborate with leaders and teams who are committed to making a difference,” Leanne shared. “I love partnering with organisations to help them craft strategies that are not just effective, but also ethical and inclusive.”
If you’re looking for a partner that understands both the ground-level dynamics of community engagement and the strategic foresight needed to embed it into the fabric of an organisation, Leanne and the entire Social Pinpoint Professional Development Services Team would love to connect and explore how we can work together to elevate your community engagement efforts. Let’s make decisions that matter to the people who will be most affected by them.
