一般注記 | This book offers a new insight into leadership in the public sector: It describes public leadership as a form of collective leadership in which leaders from a range of public, private and voluntary organisations share a common aim in improving the life of communities. It examines the current focus on public service reform and highlights the impact that performance targets have had on leadership. The importance of the role of the individual leader is acknowledged, but it argues that this role is not to provide the answers but to ask intelligent questions in tackling wicked issues that undermine well being. The book explores the experience of reform across the sector and sets some tough challenges for government, public institutions and their leaders. It will be of benefit to all who are interested in what the future holds for public services and prompts a different way of thinking about leadership Setting the Challenge for Public Leaders -- Central Government Reform and Leadership -- Health Services Reform and Leadership -- Education reform and Leadership -- Police and Criminal Justice Reform and Leadership -- Local Government Reform and Leadership -- UK Defence Reform and Leadership -- Keynote Chapter: What is Expected of Public Leaders? -- Political Leadership -- Community Leadership -- Leaders as Problem Solvers -- Knowledge and Capabilities of Public Leaders -- Measuring the Value of Leadership Skills to Deliver Improved Performance -- Adaptive Leadership in Drumcree -- Leadership of Change Narratives: An Alternative Voice -- S17 of the Crime and Disorder Act: A Missed Opportunity for Public Leadership? -- Partnerships: Rhetoric or Reality? -- Lessons from the Private Sector -- The Role of the Third Sector in Public Leadership -- Can Public Leadership be Evaluated -- A Collective Public Leadership Approach for the Future Includes bibliographical references and index Print version record eBooks on EBSCOhost All EBSCO eBooks HTTP:URL=http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=346865 |
