Fundamentals of Consequence Management
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Consequence Management is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through council procedure and intergovernmental relations without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because audit outcomes have become the dominant measure of municipal performance, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with municipal budgeting, annual reporting and service delivery planning in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of municipal budgeting rather than escalating it, measured against the Batho Pele principles
- Review annual reporting and say plainly whether it is working
- Put service delivery planning on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Improve irregular expenditure within their own organisation
