Managing teams require structure in their response to an evolving crises, which is generally a difficult position to attain when information and resources are limited. Protocol and response plans are only activated in extreme crises, leaving a gap in response when overload has been reached but is not within the stipulated margins. Recognition at this stage is important if successful outcomes are to be achieved. This book proposes an 8-point model, which it labels the DALI Model, for responding to these situations, to simplify and synthesize decision-making processes.
Reviews / Votes
This book details an approach to dealing with crisis situations and rapid change in the public sector using an eight-point model, the DALI model, to help public sector organizations efficiently use resources while managing change. Based on a qualitative research study, the model examines internal staff processes to produce a shift and includes the customer perspective. It focuses on connection, capacity, governance, standards, networks, policy, training, and process improvement and discusses theoretical models of public sector responses to radical change; case studies of decision-making in response to rapid change, namely Malta's response to the Libya crisis, fire and rescue restructuring in Scotland, and an emergency department overload in Malta, and application of the model to them; and the role of timing, reform, productivity, and preparedness. -- Annotation (c)2019 * (protoview.com) *More details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
