DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book is your guide to becoming an empowerment leader. Its purpose: to redirect and re-energize leadership in government. If you are involved in any form of government leadership, this new publication will show you exactly how to develop and implement the principles of empowerment and improve quality. Transformational Leadership in Government is written for administrators and managers who are committed to improving the efficiency and effectiveness of their staff. Koehler and Pankowski illustrate how true leadership is the creation of a working environment that encourages those closest to the problem to take the responsibility for solving it. The authors provide new principles of leadership that will enable leaders to successfully manage any government organization. The book focuses on governmental organizations that should be customer driven, process oriented, team based, and data driven. The essence of Transformational Leadership in Government can be summed up in the words of W. Edwards Deming: Give the worker a chance to work with pride.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis document sets out the strategy to transform the business of government through increased and better use of technology. It is directed at three key areas: (1) the transformation of public services for the benefit of citizens, businesses, taxpayers and front-line staff; (2) the efficiency of the corporate services and infrastructure of government organizations; (3) the steps necessary to achieve effective delivery of technology for government. To achieve this, services must be designed around the citizen or business, not the provider. Government must move to a shared services culture, releasing efficiencies by standardisation, simplification and sharing. And there must be more professionalism in the planning, delivery, management, skills and governance of IT in government. A detailed action plan to implement the strategy will be approved by the Chief Information Officers' Council and the Service Transformation Board, and published before the end of this financial year. Comments on the strategy (by 3 February 2006) are welcomed: [email protected]; Strategy Team, eGovernment Unit, Cabinet Office, 3rd Floor, Stockley House, 130 Wilton Road, London SW1V 1LQ (tel 020 7276 63160)

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTechnological innovations across the globe are bringing profound change to our society. Governments around the world are experiencing and embracing this technology-led shift. New platforms, emerging technologies, customizable products, and changing citizen demand and outlook towards government services are reshaping the whole journey. When it comes to the application of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in any sector, the Government of India has emerged as an early adopter of these technologies and has also focused on last-mile delivery of citizen-centric services. Citizen Empowerment through Digital Transformation in Government takes us through the four-decade long transformational journey of various key sectors in India where ICT has played a major role in reimagining government services to citizens across the country. It touches upon the emergence of the National Informatics Centre as a premier technology institution of the Government of India and its collaborative efforts with the Central, State Governments, as well as the District level administration, to deliver best-in-class solutions. Inspiring and informative, the book is filled with real-life transformation stories that have helped to lead the people and the Government of India to realize their vision of a digitally empowered nation.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThere has never been so much pressure on nonprofit boards of directors to achieve a level of accountability that meets public and stakeholder expectations. Member-serving association boards may be especially challenged by their more complex affiliate structures and a greater emphasis on representative governance. But what does the journey to good governance look like? Markedly different from existing board development books, this modern approach focuses less on the behaviors and qualities of "high-performing boards" and more on the stages and processes that directors and their staff used to transform their boards. Based on research funded by the ASAE Foundation, the book fills a gap in the governance literature by emphasizing diagnosis and problem solving, using the actual tools and activities implemented by 85 transformed associations. Combining the credibility of scholarly research with lively and compelling stories, tools, and teachable moments, this book is designed to help associations and other nonprofit organizations achieve the entire journey to good governance, from first to last steps.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOver the last decade governments in Europe and North America have attempted to improve efficiency of public services through Information and Communication Technology, commonly branded as electronic government (e-government). Public Sector Transformation through E-Government explores the influence that e-government has on public sector organizations, the organizational complexities that result, and its impact on citizens and democratic society. This book examines e-government's potential to transform public services from a theoretical perspective, and provides practical examples from leading public sector institutions that have utilized e-government as a basis to bring about change. It further investigates the relationship between citizens and government and how they are affected by e-government policies and programs. Aimed at students and researchers of public administration/management and information systems, this book serves as a welcome tool for examining and understanding e-government and transformational change.
