1GRAMME RATIONALE

Rapid changes in socio-economic, political and technological environments have had a profound effect upon the public sector and its institutions. Governments around the world are attempting to deal with these new realities. Publfc sector reform initiatives include: policy, legal and regulatory changes, the implementation of E- government initiatives, enhanced citizenship engagement and new methods of customer service delivery.

Nem. approaches to public sector management have been developed in response to these initiatives. Govl:rqments around the world are experimenting with new alternative forms of service delivery and public- privllte partnerships. There has been the introduction of business process re-engineering, project management, tt:an.. building, the management of performance and risk and the introduction of business models to assess prop.ramme performance and to undertake strategic planning. As a result, there is a new emphasis on recruiting, dev~::loping and training people, which is so critical to the operation of government institutions. Greater emphasis is bring placed on building organisational capabilities and leadership competences.

( Inn sponse to the need to assist senior Commonwealth public sector executives in this changing environment, ' the rCommonwealth Secretariat, through the Governance and Institutional Development Division (GIDD) and in collaboration with the Schulich Executive Education Centre, Schulich School of Business, York University, '1 Canada, has established the Executive Programme in Public Management This Programme is now in its loth i :,uc,:essive year.

I Thi j Executive Programme in Public Management enables senior public officials to benchmark smart practices In tlie design, implementation and delivery of government programmes andpolicies. The Programme is targeted at r znior leaders and agents of change management. The participants will learn through interaction with their per rs from throughout the Commonwealth.

1 WI'ile it is recognised that there is no 'off-the-shelf' blueprint for an ideal public service, as well as no single

j for~nula for public service reform, a clear picture of the desired new order and its rationale will obviously be esr zntial. It is critical that there is a very clear understanding of the condition of the existing organisation and the

I I

rat~onale under which it has been established and operates.

I PROGRAMME OBJECTIVES

The Programme will assist participants to:

spearhead changes at senior levels within their agencies/organisations implement innovative public management policies and programmes equip th:emselves with management skills required by public managers operating in an environment of public sector andlor economic reform benckark smart practices in the design, development, implementation and delivery of government programmes and policies create a self-sustaining programme alumni that will become a learning network

focus on the following core areas:

ership, Team Building and Facilitation \

1s:;ues in Public Policy Development Ir~ternational Financial Management

ing the Interface between the Minister and Senior Officials onwealth Public Sector Reform

S ~ccessful Project Management h nproving Service Delivery begotiation and Dispute Resolution.

There w~l l also be a practicum. It is an exercise in 'action learning' where participants will be asked to develop actiorl plans addressing specific issues currently faced by their organisations.

i l'dodels for Public Sector Reform: International Context I With in(. reasing globalisation, the ability of the state to isolate a society from international economic realities is

limited ;at best. The process of globalisation of the production and distribution of goods and services has led to the need for competitive government structures that support the work of the private sector. This has resulted in

i the intrl:,duction of economic and management concepts into the field of public administration, such as cost- i benefit analysis, TQM (Total Quality Management), customer service and team building. I

The Prc gramme will review public sector reform in selected developing countries of the Commonwealth. These I experiences will be compared with the Canadian experience.

In col1:~boration with our partners, the Programme will explore the response of member countries and other organi:.ations to public management challenges. By participating in this process, senior Commonwealth officials will hiive an opportunity to assist in the evolution of smart practices. In this sense, it is a joint learning experis.:nce rather than an academic exercise.

Overcoming Resistance to Change A nun ~ber of critical skills that are essential for change management will be addressed to create a thorough underr.tanding bf the issues necessary to create change. These include:

I !

j - nlanaging organisatiorial change ! Organisational changes are often frustrated by the inability of management to implement those changes.

The programme will examine the best means of managing organisational change. 1 - creativitv in leadership and team building

Special attention will be given to the ingredients of leadership and the importance of team building to ensure creativity in change management. effective communication skills Too often,lsuccessful change is denied by a failure to maintain effective communication with staff, clients and stakeholders. This problem requires serious attention. skills in negotiation and dispute resolution To achieve higher productivity and effectiveness, managers must understand the importance and role of special skills in negotiation and dispute resolution. creating a leaming culture None of the above can be effectively addressed without first creating a culture where leaming flourishes.

Page 3 of 8

,A" ect tnanagement \

singly both the private sector and the public sector require special knowledge for the design and agement of particular projects.

ledge management ln turn, such projects will only be successful where the latest knowledge can be applied and managed in a specific rather than general context. financial management Although not all public servants are financial managers, all must be aware of their responsibility to contribute to a successful financial environment for the organisation. This is also essential for successful project management.

I Practicum

This module requires participants to apply Programme learning to a specific workplace-based change or study. Participants will synthesise their macro-level learning of public sector change and leadership skill development into the design and implementation of an organisationally specific case study. Participants will have the opportunity to undertake the assignment related to their own organisation or career planning.

I

The ~practicum will be ideniified prior to the commencement of the Programme,
