But the optimist in me still believes that there is always hope, and it can be done.<BR/><BR/>Hopefully, in this lifetime, though. :)KCeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02136017581739388792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7939090324856486515.post-13546319825569150592008-04-13T07:54:00.000-07:002008-04-13T07:54:00.000-07:00Overhauling the system in government is an excellent idea, though I must admit, but seems to be an insurmountable feat. <BR/><BR/>Leadership and change emanate from the top. Unless that leadership is filled in by an honest and committed governance, there will never be any change at all. Bureaucracies will go from bad to worse. Ah! Really lamentable huh. Forgive my pessimism there.Norhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15123517229956303014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7939090324856486515.post-81714637222741855442008-04-12T06:14:00.000-07:002008-04-12T06:14:00.000-07:00Precisely. I think a major system overhaul is in order, before agency heads will finally take heed. <BR/><BR/>Organizations differ in main core values that is why 'people management' gets lost among those who for instance, prioritize profitability over the quality management of its people.KCeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02136017581739388792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7939090324856486515.post-43605007148910460722008-04-12T01:20:00.000-07:002008-04-12T01:20:00.000-07:00Agree.<BR/><BR/>I worked as a government consultant once under CSC, and one of the most difficult challenges our group encountered is on the implementation side of Management Systems. Unless government agency heads are willing to make 'people management' as their main core values, any 'enforcement' efforts' will simply become an exercise in futility.Norhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15123517229956303014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7939090324856486515.post-54358868142830164452008-04-11T12:41:00.000-07:002008-04-11T12:41:00.000-07:00Yes, it is indeed fundamental. But what dominantly exists in the government sector is poor people management; hence it necessitates quality and effective enforcement.KCeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02136017581739388792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7939090324856486515.post-25893274904297552002008-04-10T14:47:00.000-07:002008-04-10T14:47:00.000-07:00I thought 'people management' is paramount or essential for public servants.Norhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15123517229956303014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7939090324856486515.post-42195649904863231442008-04-09T05:40:00.000-07:002008-04-09T05:40:00.000-07:00Effective people management, as I have observed, is highly encouraged and performed more in private organizations. It would be ideal if it can also be integrated in the government sector as well, where it is needed most.KCeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02136017581739388792noreply@blogger.com
