Description
Exploring the challenges faced by public sector organisations under New Public Management (NPM) methods, this book offers a radical challenge to dominant assumptions about managing for the public good.
The authors bring together their expertise to provide practical insights and theoretical grounding on how to manage in everyday public sector organisational situations using complexity theory. The book includes real-world narratives illustrating concrete dilemmas in the workplace and a concluding chapter that draws together the implications of a complexity perspective.
