Abstract

The conducted study concluded that good governance concept focuses on the worker’s management approach and also include broad joint practices in problem-solving processes, joint activities and delegation of authority.

Participation and “negotiations with organized networks of interest” are vital to properly address problems in a democracy. The context of democracy makes thousands of conscious decentralized experiments, allows new models of political decision-making and new forms of development to be tested. Partly delegating of the policy-making function to “problem-solving specialists” (experts), the state places additional responsibilities on them to establish a permanent dialogue with society and to promote its further development towards self–determination and self–organization.

The article compares the content of the definitions of “transformation leadership” and “transactional leadership”, comparing the characteristics of these types of leadership. Effective leadership, including in the public sector, is increasingly linked to the formation of an intense collective mind (intense collective intelligence) and simultaneously with the creation of a caring and supportive culture in the organization; it is increasingly worth of using situations of leadership practices, that is, adapting the form of leadership to the nature of the problem that needs to be solved is important.

The concept of value-oriented public management from the point of view of strategy approach is analyzed. Both practitioners and scientists are increasingly interested in the idea of public value as a way of understanding government performance, informing policy making and building service delivery. The further development of the study of “knowledge organization” was obtained. The special potential of transformation leadership in the Ukrainian society is emphasized.
