| Summary: | "Public administration faces a critical challenge: the need for transformative adaptiveness in public agencies. Despite diverse organizational structures and functions, agencies worldwide need help navigating complexity, dynamics, and agility. Traditional approaches often need to be revised, and they cannot address the interconnected challenges of modern governance. This book, Holistic Public Agency in Complex Environments, offers a comprehensive solution to this pressing issue.Drawing on principles of the theory of complex systems, the book provides a roadmap for agencies to enhance their adaptiveness and effectiveness. It explores how agencies can leverage systemic behavior, flexibility, and agility to evolve and fulfill their missions in a rapidly changing world. By understanding the historical context and cultural influences on public reforms, agencies can adopt strategies that align with their organizational values and goals. The book also introduces scenario planning as a tool for anticipating and preparing for future challenges, ensuring agencies remain proactive and resilient."-- |
