Integrated approaches and tools for ensuring the efficiency of multilevel governance in crisis conditions.
Abstract
The article examines the theoretical foundations of integrated multilevel governance, in particular, the concept of results-based management (RBM) and its role in ensuring the effectiveness of multilevel governance in Ukraine is discussed. The formation of a new paradigm of multilevel governance based on the convergence of various management concepts of public administration in combination with integrated management approaches is substantiated. It is noted that a comprehensive integrated approach, on the one hand, involves preserving the basic democratic principles of multilevel governance, and on the other, is aimed at strategic orientation, results-based management, quality management, risk management and crisis response to create a comprehensive system of multilevel governance under conditions of uncertainty and hybrid threats. The integration of Results-Based Management (RBM) and Total Quality Management (TQM) approaches is proposed to increase the effectiveness of crisis management, combining a strategic focus on results with continuous improvement of the quality of processes. This will allow public organizations not only to effectively respond to crises, but also to prevent their occurrence through proactive management at different levels, focusing on the subnational level, which includes regional, local and subnational levels, to conduct continuous risk analysis and improve processes, which will help ensure the long-term sustainability of public organizations in conditions of uncertainty.
