Navigating a Complex World - A Simple Guide for Public Officers
Synopsis
Governments in the 21st century operate in an environment that is more complex than before, and governance requires public officers who are skilled in complexity thinking: adaptable, fluid in thought and willing to experiment before implementing a solution.
This new guide, edited by Peter Ho and Sheila Pakir, illustrates tools and frameworks that can help public officers better navigate the complex environment. It focuses on Singapore, but many of these ideas may be transferable to other contexts.
It is available for sale at $20 (including GST) per copy. To purchase, please contact Liza Lee or Sheila Ng
