Book Synopsis Talent Strategies and Leadership Development of the Public Sector by : Celia Lee
Download or read book Talent Strategies and Leadership Development of the Public Sector written by Celia Lee and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-06-06 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To stay ahead of the competition, the public sector has to ensure an effective talent management strategy to attract, develop and retain talents. Effective talent management is about aligning the organisation’s approach to talent with the strategic aims and purpose of the organisation. This book adopts a comparative country analysis, which takes into account the institutional emphasis, organisational configuration and unique characteristics of the public sector. Against the backdrop of three major stages of administrative development, i.e., the colonial, postcolonial and modern periods, this book unpacks how the talent schemes have been shaped by the reforms, experiences, cross-country knowledge transfers and evolved over time responding to globalisation and digitalisation in Southeast Asia. This book will be of great interest to scholars and public managers working on public administration and civil service reforms in Asia towards developing a contextualised understanding of talent management and leadership development in the region.
Book Synopsis Public Sector Leadership by : Jeffrey A. Raffel
Download or read book Public Sector Leadership written by Jeffrey A. Raffel and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A truly international examination of public sector leadership, this book explores the ways leaders of developed nations are addressing current challenges. The overriding question explored by the authors is how public leadership across the globe addresses new challenges (such as security, financial, demographic), new expectations of leaders, and what public sector leadership means in the new era. The book allows the reader to view a large number of situations across the globe to better understand the relation between context and leadership. It integrates the two fields of leadership and public administration, providing a wide-ranging and complementary empirical context to the topic. Transcending state-centered perspectives, the authors include new developments in governance and public private sector collaboration while retaining a focus on the public values involved. The chapters address public sector leadership issues in a wide array of nations, integrating international perspectives with a globally diverse authorship. Several chapters address issues of collaboration across sectors, changing roles in the New Public Management paradigm, and corresponding new visions of leadership. Several of the chapters are explicitly comparative, including a study of mental health leadership training topics in eight nations, central banking in Europe, and efficiency studies in Britain, Denmark, and Norway. The chapters can be used as thought-provoking case studies as part of a supplemental text, and are accompanied by substantial bibliographies. Scholars, students, and practitioners in leadership, public policy and administration, and organization studies will find this volume a useful reference.

Book Synopsis Constructing an Integrated Model of Public-sector Leadership Competencies by : Iryna Illiash
Download or read book Constructing an Integrated Model of Public-sector Leadership Competencies written by Iryna Illiash and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Driven by the forces of globalization, the sweeping developments of recent decades have prompted changes in societal perceptions of leadership. The meaning of the concept itself has changed so dramatically that public leadership does not mean public-sector leadership anymore as the sectoral boundaries have been crossed to include individuals from the private and nonprofit sectors, civic leaders, and community volunteers involved in addressing pressing social, economic, and environmental problems (Luke, 1998). And yet, the chain of recent, universally acknowledged public sector leadership failures indicate that lack of leadership in public organizations is, if not immediately apparent, quite real. Increasingly, leadership quality is being linked to leadership training and development. In particular, an approach to leadership development and selection that is gaining momentum under "the pervasive influence" of New Public Management in the US and a number of other countries (Mau, 2009) is based on a set of identifiable personal characteristics called competencies. This research offers an analysis of competency-based approaches and addresses the need for better articulation of leadership models to ensure a better fit with the public sector (Trottier et al., 2008). The purpose of this theory-building exercise has been to create an integrated model of public-sector leadership competencies that could be used as a template in developing a leadership training program for public sector executives and/or managers. Exploratory in nature and qualitative in terms of methodology, the research offers a phenomenological perspective and provides critical assessment of the competency movement's place within the processes transforming public service. Grounding the analysis in the existing leadership and public administration literature, I ask the questions: How well does the competency-based approach serve the mission of producing public leaders capable of sustaining high performance in their work communities--departmental units or agencies? And is it capable of capturing and integrating new and emerging competencies as they appear? The synthesis of selected competency models into the integrated model brings the disparate and disjointed language of competency modeling one step closer to a common denominator, thus deepening our understanding of this phenomenon. It also responds to the perceived need to further develop competency-based theory of leadership and contributes, through the advancement of the topic, to the improvement of our civil service and its leadership cadre's training and development.

Book Synopsis Military Leadership Lessons for Public Service by : Charles Szypszak
Download or read book Military Leadership Lessons for Public Service written by Charles Szypszak and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Military veterans have had some of the most intensive leadership training available. Many return to their communities seeking to apply what they have learned. Those who enter the world of public affairs--where colleagues are increasingly less likely to have served in the military--may encounter a popular misconception: that military leadership is all about exercising authority and giving orders. In fact military leadership is based on interpersonal dynamics, often learned through trying circumstances. Effective management of civil emergencies--as shown by 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina--calls for the same official demeanor, decisiveness and trustworthiness as does combat. Good leadership is fundamentally the same in ordinary day-to-day challenges as well. This book describes how the principles and methods of military leadership are effective for public service. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.
Book Synopsis Building the Leadership Pipeline by : Robert J. Lavigna
Download or read book Building the Leadership Pipeline written by Robert J. Lavigna and published by ICMA Publishing. This book was released on 2013-07-01 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are more than 80 million baby boomers in the United States today, and they account for almost 28 percent of our nation’s population. As these workers retire, the entire nation will face a workforce crisis. This crisis will hit government first because public sector workers are, on average, older than private sector workers. Moreover, most public servants can retire earlier than their private sector counterparts. To respond to this workforce crisis, public organizations need to build their leadership pipelines. There are two main approaches to developing the leadership pipeline: the traditional “just-in-time” approach and the “integrated” approach. These approaches can be viewed as the opposite ends of a continuum, with most organizations’ practices falling somewhere in between. Building the Leadership Pipeline presents case studies of practical and effective leadership development practices to help government build the next generation of leaders. These practices include integrating theory and practice through action learning and other “real-life” projects; succession planning; rotational and/or developmental assignments; internships; data-driven development (based on assessments, feedback, and other sources); senior leaders’ involvement; and structured relationship building.
Book Synopsis Developing Public Service Leaders by : Mike Wallace
Download or read book Developing Public Service Leaders written by Mike Wallace and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-02 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developing Public Service Leaders examines why and how governments and representative bodies in public service organizations have mounted major interventions over the last two decades to develop senior staff as leaders. A critical explanation is developed of the foundational contribution made by national leadership development interventions in the 2000s to the emergence, proliferation, and normalization of leadership development provision. Through carrying out qualitative research in England, the authors investigate the national leadership development interventions for school education, healthcare, and higher education. Whilst also looking at the contemporary legacy of these interventions within a global scale, examining the growing international movement and comparing interventions across the world. The book looks at new ways to approach leadership development, adopting a novel perspective on leadership as a metaphorical concept and coining the concept of 'leaderism', and exploring how although senior staff may be widely acculturated as leaders, they may not necessarily be committed to acting as government change agents. Leadership development makes a diffuse contribution towards the ongoing neoliberalization of public services. Developing Public Service Leaders is a comprehensive and essential read for a researcher or policymaker striving for an in-depth understanding of the field and its ramifications.
