AB  - Many public sector managers are facing fundamental organizational
changes, as government macro reforms in health and education reach down
to the managers′ agenda. Cultural changes and a new set of values are
demanding new management approaches and skills as managers seek to
embrace an alternative organizational environment. Seeks to draw out
some practical lessons and examples where successful managers in
hospitals and colleges have embraced the positive aspects of change,
while still preserving those aspects and values of the public sector
which have provided for stability and integrity in organizations. Sets
out a balance sheet for change, considering the detailed operational
issues likely to arise in implementing such changes and suggests that a
sensitive and pragmatic view, focusing on process and people, as well as
outcome, is likely to remain a crucial skill for effective management.
