| Synopsis: |
How can government leaders build, sustain, and leverage the cross-organizational collaborative networks needed to tackle the complex interagency and intergovernmental challenges they increasingly face? Tackling Wicked Government Problems: A Practical Guide for Developing Enterprise Leaders draws on the experiences of high-level government leaders to describe and comprehensively articulate the complicated, ill-structured difficulties they face - often referred to as "wicked problems" - in leading across organizational boundaries and offers the best strategies for addressing them.Tackling Wicked Government Problems explores howenterprise leaders use networks of trusted, collaborative relationships to respond and lead solutions to problems that span agencies. It also offers several approaches fortranslating social network theory into practical approaches for these leaders to build and leverage boundary-spanning collaborative networks and achieve real mission results.Finally, past and present government executives offer strategies for systematically developing enterprise leaders. Taken together, these essays provide a way forward for a new cadre of officials better equipped to tackle government's twenty-first-century wicked challenges. |
