Improving management in councils ”is vital”
Amending the organisational style in councils will be vital if cuts to frontline services are to be avoided , one industry expert has noted.
Paul Weekes, principal consultant at Knox D'Arcy - an implementation management consultancy - said a more active supervision approach was required.
People who possess these skills that are looking for public sector jobs may like to take heed of his advice.
He added that improved management control systems and further individual accountability for performance could also help these organisations.
Mr Weekes, author of recent research into local government and private sector efficiency, pointed out that managers of the former would be better off spending time ensuring the achievement of workers is being optimised.
This news comes after the Department for Work and Pensions revealed that local government has some of the most commonly trained staff in the public sector, as well as those in health.
Its research also noted that it was widespread for younger people and women to experience workplace education.
