This book details an approach to dealing with crisis situations and rapid change in the public sector using an eight-point model, the DALI model, to help public sector organizations efficiently use resources while managing change. Based on a qualitative research study, the model examines internal staff processes to produce a shift and includes the customer perspective. It focuses on connection, capacity, governance, standards, networks, policy, training, and process improvement and discusses theoretical models of public sector responses to radical change; case studies of decision-making in response to rapid change, namely Malta's response to the Libya crisis, fire and rescue restructuring in Scotland, and an emergency department overload in Malta, and application of the model to them; and the role of timing, reform, productivity, and preparedness.
