23. Putting Theory into Theory: Thematic Value of Research in Public Administration Teaching

Author

Barber, Stephen and Luke, Peter

Abstract

Research can be a powerful tool informing public administration teaching. This article takes the distinctive approach of exploring its use through the prism of the research itself by considering 10 publications by the article's authors. The existing literature revolves around students learning about the craft of research or research findings. By consolidating these ideas to observe the practicalities of doing research and the value of indirect findings, the article advances the approach to demonstrate how concepts within research can be of reflective worth for learners with what it terms the "thematic value" of research.

34. Dissecting the Interplay Between Elected Members and Officials in Board Level Technology Decisions: The Case of a Local Authority in England.

Author

Abstract

Digital investment and the successful selection and implementation of technology is crucial to local government success and yet there is a dearth of research evaluating how these decisions are made. And yet there is a dearth of research evaluating how Boards and executives of all kinds make these decisions and the role they play in influencing asset deployment in the digital space. In this regard, government, and especially local government is not only sparsely investigated as part of the existing body of knowledge but does not function neatly when compared to commercial organizations and the profit motive. This paper addresses the shortfall by investigating the interplay between elected members and Boards of local government in terms of complex decision-making processes surrounding technology investment. Empirically, this research adopts a case study approach and qualitative questioning of key elected and appointed actors allowing us to dissect the phenomenon. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

38. Public Administration and the MBA Crossover: what is the case for more socialisation?

Author

Barber, Stephen

Abstract

This article sets Masters in Public Administration in the complex context that such executive education is delivered today. It discusses sector blurring, skills capacity building needed as the economy and organisations move away from the old ‘industrial mindset’ and the new mission of social enterprise shared with MBAs. It demonstrates that executive education today needs to develop an ‘open mindset’ and related skills of creativity, leadership and innovation. The article makes the case for greater strategic socialisation between MPAs and Masters in Business Administration which it argues can benefit students from the commercial sector, public service organisations and everything in between.
