21st-Century
Governance
|
|
The
twenty-first century is underway, and governments around the
globe face monumental change. The economic policies of the New
Deal and strategic priorities of the Cold War are long gone.
Governing systems around the globe must change to accommodate
the new world order. Will our public officials struggle with
obsolete models of governance, or embrace change for the millennium?
Time will tell.
In the mean time, the world’s citizens are exhausted by
governments unable to implement change. They expect them to
adapt with private-sector-like resiliency, and demand tangible
results therein. After all, what purpose do sound visions that
don't result in lasting change have? None absolutely.
The forgoing questions are complicated by the needs of the modern
community. The public, private, and social sectors, as described
by Peter Drucker, have conflicting interests, and the five strategic
resources needed for a viable society, are not equally available
within a single country around the globe.
Moreover, the information age has brought us to an historic
crossroads. Change is moving faster and on more fronts, while
society’s capacity to lead public change is limited.
In order to meet these challenges, we must all develop new ideas
about governance. They must be visionary, transformational in
their thinking, and comprehensive in their consideration of
issues.
The Public Governance Institute invites you to use our resources
in order to develop your own concept of governance for the 21st
century. Together we can develop the skills necessary to lead
change in the new millennium. |
