A comparison of management adaptations for joined‐up government: Lessons from New Zealand

Despite considerable attention, helping agencies to work more effectively together is one of the most important contemporary challenges of public administration theory and practice. The New Zealand Better Public Services (BPS) Results program has been an unexpected success in this area and provides a positive case study. In 2012, the New Zealand government set targets for solving 11 important social problems where responsibility crossed agency boundaries and has made significant measurable progress in all 11 problems. This paper explores the conditions that may have enabled the most progress and possible management adaptations when these initial conditions are not fully met. In particular, the case demonstrates how goal commitment can be supported where there exist a large number of potential actors and how interagency trust can be built in the absence of existing relationships.

以心理治疗反思社会文化

20世纪50年代以后出现的行为(认知-行为)治疗范式致力于治疗方法与技术的创新和改进,旨在提高人们对环境的适应性,但却忽略了对社会和社会文化的考察;人本主义治疗范式把关注的焦点放在社会和社会文化上,以探索适合人的全面发展的社会和文化条件,可是没能在治疗的技术和方法上有所建树.20世纪末,受后现代思潮影响而出现的叙事治疗范式创造性地提出了"外化问题"的技术,并在此基础上整合了微观和宏观的治疗取向,把治疗实践和反思主流文化成功地结合在一起,从而为心理治疗领域注入了新的活力.     

构建公安新闻舆论引导长效机制的对策探析

当前新闻媒体"袭警"事件频发,原因是公安机关与新闻媒介的沟通存在误区,缺乏有效的应对负面报道的新闻舆论引导机制,而公安民警的综合素质难以在短期内适应动态新闻舆论引导工作的要求,缺乏明确的关于公安新闻危机的定性判断标准,且公安机关在处理新闻危机时缺乏法定依据。针对上述问题和困难,应该完善新闻舆论监督立法,构建警方与媒体的沟通联谊机制,建立公安新闻资源管理机制,规范公安新闻舆论信息处理机制,实行公安新闻舆论预测制度,科学建立网络公安新闻舆论引导工作机制,构建警察形象危机处置机制,开展应对媒体能力的教育培训。

Reflective and decisive supervision: The role of participative leadership and team climate in joint decision-making

Supervisory bodies can intervene in organizational practices that may harm society, but their effectiveness to do so depends on their ability to make decisions reflectively and decisively. Are these tendencies incompatible with each other or can they go together? Can empowering leadership (i.e. participative, coaching, informing behaviors) stimulate reflectiveness and decisiveness? A 10-item Joint Decision-Making Questionnaire was developed and tested among supervisory officers (N = 87) and supervisory board members (N = 158). Reflectiveness and decisiveness were positively correlated, indicating that these tendencies can be reconciled in joint decision-making (Study 1). An examination of 44 supervisory teams further revealed that participative leadership relates to more reflectiveness and decisiveness, via cooperative trust and goal commitment (Study 2). Moreover, teams that experienced this team climate prior to COVID-19 reported that they acted more reflectively and decisively during this crisis (Study 3). Hence, participative leaders can foster reflectiveness and decisiveness, by promoting cooperative trust and goal commitment.     

论有法必依与劳动者权益保障

我国劳动领域长期以来一直在安全生产、工时及工资支付方面存在一些突出问题,既侵犯职工合法利益,又严重影响社会稳定.其实国家的劳动法律在安全生产及工时、工资制度方面的规定相当详细并且具有很强的操作性,然而这些方面问题也最多,显然问题的根源不是劳动法律不健全,而是有法不依,才致劳动领域问题难除,以至于形成沉疴顽疾.
