Leading Municipal Finance Teams
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers council procedure and performance management in government from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because officials are held personally accountable under legislation many have never been trained on, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with consequence management, records management and public participation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain consequence management to someone who does not do the work, measured against the Batho Pele principles
- Review records management and say plainly whether it is working
- Bring public participation into line with current good practice
- Make a decision about supply chain compliance in government without waiting for a specialist
