Journal Title: ESSACHESS - Journal for Communication Studies - Year 2009, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Public managers are graduated young people who passed trough an accelerated development program preparing them for careers at the highest levels of the Civil Service. Civil Service fast streamers are exposed to a range of placements in government departments and agencies and they are placed in regularly changing roles of intensive responsibility to prepare them for future senior managerial positions. Methodology: Interviews with major stakeholders took place in order to find out their opinions on the overall impact of public managers on the Romanian Civil Service over the last 3 years. More than 25 senior civil servants and 40 Public Managers were interviewed using both face to face and phone interviews. The research is the more important as the studies on the subject are almost inexistent and it approaches a group of people being in essence, policy advisers, project leaders, experts, liaison and many other job titles all in one. Therefore, it is highly important to understand the challanges and future prospects of those Public Managers as they represent a group of people able to meet the fresh challanges that come from the rapidly changing business and political environment.
