Good public management in the gap
Public management is a complex discipline that is constantly challenged by special conditions and complex issues. We are moving into the gap where transversal and joint management is required, and where our leaders must possess multidimensional competences.
Take part in this webinar where Jette Runchel will start from the book 'Good Public Management', which she co-authored. NOCA invites you to explore the interface between departments, disciplines and organisations. This is where the undefined tasks and complex problems exist, and which require solutions and answers. But, as we all know, there are constant forces pulling our focus away from the gap.
How can our managers navigate their own area, employees and management space without losing sight of the big picture? How can they justify the prioritization of the space in a busy everyday life, where their own performance is constantly measured? These are challenges that require clear and effective public management at all levels.
The webinar will explore key themes such as:
- Public management: What's at stake?
- The gap in leadership
- Management, competence & capacity
- The importance of leadership and why we need to talk about it
- The management chain and cross-border tasks
- The role of top management in leadership in the gap
Why participate? Public management plays a decisive role for employee well-being and the organization's task-solving, especially when it comes to ensuring cross-functional cooperation for the benefit of citizens. In a world characterized by increasing complexity, leadership is essential, and this webinar examines how the gap can be a decisive factor in this context.
We encourage you to let yourself be inspired, disturbed, irritated, provoked, influenced - and then take hold of what makes sense in your context with your specific challenges.
The webinar is relevant for top managers, managers and HR employees who work in the public sector or who are curious about the tension in which public management finds itself.
