Introduction

There are fundamental gender differences in organizational management styles, values, leadership strategies and policy preferences, which constitute barriers to women’s ascendancy to the highest levels of leadership. These differences not only condition women’s leadership/managerial styles, but also shape the effectiveness of any such styles, which in turn reflect on their participation in public administration. This paper distils the existent conceptual, theoretical and empirical models on public administration, gender disparities, and underlying factors that prevent women’s upward mobility as well as the subsequent effect on organizational outcomes. Ultimately, however, management and leadership styles in any context continue ...

Morton Grodzins, The American System as a Single Mechanism, 1966

THESIS
In the view of author, the US government is involved in complexity due to the involvement of all three layers of government in all the functions.

In the author’s opinion, governments have to appropriately divide the authorities and responsibilities among all the three layers to avoid overlapping of functions.
The great number of governments does cover complication of activities. Distribution is not appropriately administrated ...

Jane Addams. Problems of Municipal Administration. January 1905.
Thesis: According to Jane, the problems of municipal administration, and the shame of the cities in America is a result of the reformers’ persistent and over-reliance of outmoded ideas of the eighteenth century.

The author views those who draft the state constitutions and municipal regulations as the kind of authority who loves the people without seeking to know them.

William D Coplin; Astrid E Merget; Carolyn Bourdeaux “The Professional Researcher as Change Agent in the Government-Performance Movement” Public Administration Review; Nov/Dec 2002; 62, 6; ABI/INFORM Global

Abstract
Performance monitoring plays a crucial role in management practices to both practioners and government agencies. It is credited as a factor that improves government responsibility and not merely an accountability metric. In the recent days, the performance is taken as a policy development strategy rather than a management factor. Therefore, perfortmance management can be undertaken as a democratic force that interlinks government and citizens. This helps to bring unity and operation efficiency in a specific state. ...

Key Points from Cooper reading
The chapter 7 in cooper’s book examines the problem associated with upholding responsible behavior in the context of a manager. Firstly, Cooper broadens the chapter by widening the irresponsible behavior to comprise the traditional immoral conduct and the intentional poor work performance. Secondly, the chapter also focuses on the conflict that occurs between the internal and external controls as the major causes of the irresponsible behavior. Finally, the chapter also discusses on the major elements of the ethical conduct, and Cooper identifies four major elements that constitute ethical conduct.
The first element ...

The three key points from Cooper’s reading are linked to the implications of modernization on public administration. The first concept is the political nature of public administration which asserts that politics should be put aside from public administration to ensure proper service delivery on public goods and to enhance the performance efficiency. Secondly, it points out on separation of public administration and citizen’s roles. This indicates that there should be a division between the roles played by the public administrators and the citizens. This is due to the fact that these dual roles can result to conflicting situations ...

Health care was expected to be one of the serious issues of the decades following the period of Clinton’s presidency. The costs of health care had already been rising rather quickly for more than a decade. Bill Clinton had already embraced health care reform during his candidacy and the public favored him for this.

To deal with this concern, the very first initiative that the Clinton took was the Health Security Act (HSA) (" ...

VA Hospital

When considering the VA, many do not think about the technology behind the institution. By some it is considered run down and dreary, too behind the times to have the technology necessary to draw hackers out of their lairs. By others it is considered a medical stronghold for America’s soldiers. By those who work at the Veteran’s administration, they are aware that since 2009, 181 pieces of electronic medical equipment were infected with Malware, leaving them vulnerable to cyber attackers and hackers.
One may ask why a cyber attacker would target the Veteran’s administration, or what ...

Wyandotte County is situated in the US and is bordered by Johnson on the shores of river Missouri. The county has an average of 156 miles and is one of the smallest counties in the city, and this reason has forced residents to work or reside in the neighboring areas. As indicated by the county's population statistics, it is evident that the county had a steady growth but later declined during the ‘80's and ‘90's. However, it is worth noting that the decline in population growth negatively affected the economy of the county, but its revival in early 2000 ...

1. Introduction: The current environment especially in Western societies promotes increasing consumption of calories along with a relatively sedentary lifestyle thus fueling the global obesity epidemic. Body weight is regulated by complex interaction of genes that promote energy storage along with environmental factors that promote enhanced energy intake and reduced energy expenditure. This obesity promoting environment makes it difficult for many people to sustain weight loss for long periods of time and adequately maintain healthy lifestyle habits. Obesity can overall have many devastating effects on human health such as increased tendency to develop high blood pressure, cardiovascular problems and strokes.

Charles E. Lindblom. The Science of “Muddling Through.” 1959.
Thesis: According to Charles, the United States bureaucracy uses bounded rationality and limited policy analysis in formulating regulations. He states that root analysis is a more comprehensive approach for decision-making than branch analysis. Charles, however, argues that policy makers lack the intellectual capacity to accomplish a root analysis, hence the lack of policy developments in organizations. The author states that a rational decision-making approach is not possible and explains why political maneuvering in decision-making was favorable.

“In the United States, for example, no part of government attempts a comprehensive overview of policy” (165)

“Limits on human intellectual capacities and on available information set definite limits to man’s capacity ...

First, I understood that Antony Downs (1968) explains that bureaucracy is a pivotal element of the society in decision making. Instead of elected leaders making decisions, bureaucrats actually make the most decisions that affect the society. Antony Down (1968) also reasons that bureaucratic officials are, like all other sectors of the economy motivated by their own-self interest. In the end effective public administration policy, is a delicate balancing act that requires the understanding of people’s wishes as well as the needs of the citizens.
Second, I also became aware that it is important to be understood that there is ...

Martin Landau. Redundancy, Rationality, and the Problem of Duplication and Overlap. 1969.
Thesis: According to Martin, the government system of the United States of America is built on redundant structures. The author explores various definitions for redundancy and notes that all of them have a negative connotation. Such redundancy is explained by the overlap in the intelligence agencies and the branches of the government. According to Martin, redundancy and duplication are crucial for the lengthy functioning of the government given that the authorities swing around the pendulum of power.

“It is, however, the lexical evaluation of redundancy which prevails in public administration.” (303)

“Thus it is that the removal of redundancy is rarely, ...

Government interference play huge role in the economic processes: by conducting monetary or fiscal policy, policymakers are able to stimulate the economy during the periods of downturn and moderate too fast growth during the periods of economic boom: both these cases have devastating consequences for the general growth and development. Particularly, central banks, that make decisions regarding the monetary policy, are most important players. By using different tools, such as interest rates, open market operations, required reserves etc., central banks might influence on aggregate supply and aggregate demand, thus shifting equilibrium to the desired level (in other ...

Complexity science is the investigation of complex adjustable frameworks, "the numerous patterns of relationships inside them, how they are supported, how they self-compose, and how results develop" (Zimmerman 2001).
