Public Participation for Managers
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 intergovernmental relations from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because audit outcomes have become the dominant measure of municipal performance, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with integrated development planning, municipal budgeting and audit action planning in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put integrated development planning on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against the MFMA
- Review municipal budgeting and say plainly whether it is working
- Explain audit action planning to someone who does not do the work
- Improve service delivery planning within their own organisation
