This is the 2nd edition of my eBook "10 Essential Skills for Public Servants: A Handbook" which I wrote in 2015 and was published by the Amazon. It got a very good response from the readers for its comprehensive treatment of the subject in an objective and easy to understand and remember the style. At the same time, I also got a lot of advice from different corners of the world after its availability in French, Spanish and Portuguese languages. It prompted me to thoroughly revise it and publish its updated version. Being a public servant is an honour and a privilege on the one hand but a great responsibility on the other. Faithful discharge of your duties demands you to be very effective in service delivery, efficient in execution and honest in your public dealing. This, in turn, requires a public servant to be an emotionally stable person, a strategic planner and a very skillful executive, knowledgeable, about the skills essential for performing the above role. And this Handbook is all about those skills which I considered essential for making you an emotionally stable person, a strategic planner and a very skillful executive. Fortunately, all these skills can be learned and are not inherited. It only demands wholehearted commitment and dedicated efforts to learn them. We can go through these 10 lessons in one go or these could be staggered over a period. Refer to them off and on throughout your career until they become your habits. The synergistic effect of all these skills will make you excel because the human brain has a tremendous capacity to learn new skills and habits. Firm determination through repeated practice builds the necessary pathways in a mind, needed to make them into habits.

This book introduces business-government relations in the institutional context of the United States from a practitioner’s perspective. It provides the historical, descriptive, and comparative accounts of the public and private sectors, the different roles government plays with business, including several conceptual models to understand the social interactions between the two sectors, and various economic policies associated with business. Business-government relations are framed into three different social economic contexts: The sociopolitical arena, in which government’s role as agent of business, interest groups, and government’s limited role as social architect, are introduced. The local economic development, in which government acts as a promoter of, partner with, and buyer from, business. The global market, where government mainly plays a role as promoter of domestic business. In the course of discussion, a set of skills, such as searching government jobs, starting a business, analyzing stakeholders, ethical reasoning, advancing a business agenda, leveraging public resources, contracting with government, interpreting global trends, doing business abroad, and leveraging international resources, are introduced and exercised.

Teachers of political science, social studies, and economics, as well as school library media specialists, will find this resource invaluable for incorporating the Internet into their classroom lessons. Over 150 primary source Web sites are referenced and paired with questions and activities designed to encourage critical thinking skills. Completing the activities for the lessons in this book will allow students to evaluate the source of information, the content presented, and it usefulness in the context of their assignments. Along with each Web site, a summary of the site's contents identifies important primary source documents such as constitutions, treaties, speeches, court cases, statistics, and other official documents. The questions and activites invite the students to log on to the Web site, read the information presented, interact with the data, and analyze it critically to answer such questions as: Who created this document? Is the source reliable? How is the information useful and how does it relate to present-day circumstances? If I were in this situation, would I have responded the same way as the person in charge? Strengthening these critical thinking skills will help prepare students for both college and career in the 21st century.
