Viac o knihe

Leadership emerges as a crucial yet overlooked factor in the successful implementation of policies, as explored through the case studies of university amalgamations in Australia during the 1980s and 1990s. The analysis highlights varying degrees of success across institutions like Monash University, the University of New England, and the Australian National University, identifying key factors influencing their outcomes. The book critiques existing implementation theories, particularly the model by Cerych and Sabatier, and proposes modifications to better incorporate leadership, offering valuable insights for policymakers and managers.
