Pacific Public Management Executive Program (PPMEP) Module 4: Leadership and the Management of Change
Asian Development Bank Institute | August 2001
Abstract
In completion of the four modules program of Asian Development Bank (ADB) Institute in collaboration with ADB and the Colombo Plan Secretariat to disseminate knowledge and upgrade the skills of the participants in various aspects of public sector management, this Module 4 in the Pacific Public Management Executive Program focused on the theme of Leadership and the Management of Change. The module, in a way, served as a context to integrate and synthesize many of the themes explored in the previous three modules. Modules 1 and 2 were conducted from 10-19 May 2000 in Suva, Fiji and from 4-12 September 2000 in Brisbane, Australia with the themes of managing policy, strategy and performance, and managing continuous quality service. The theme of Module 3 was managing programs, projects and people and was held from 5-13 March 2001 in Brisbane, Australia. Most efforts at reform, in public systems, ignite processes of change that call for new styles of leadership. While the design of new reform structures and policies is important, so too, are efforts to address, rather than assume, leadership and its linkage to the management of change. The dual capacities to lead and to manage change are essential to the success of any attempt to facilitate and accelerate the process of development. Exploring the frameworks, promising practices and skills requisite to the performance of these tasks was the governing purpose behind module 4 in the program.
