Leadership Development in the Public Sector in Romania: Learning from European and North American Strategies

Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2025, Vol 8, Issue 04

Abstract

In a rapidly changing professional landscape, the transition from technical roles to leadership positions presents a significant challenge for first-time managers, particularly in public administration. This article focuses on the critical role of leadership development in enabling first time managers in the public to successfully navigate new responsibilities. The article explores key European and national policies, including the European Skills Agenda, the National Strategy for Adult Education in Romania, and the Entrepreneurship 2020 Action Plan, which provide valuable context for understanding the development of leadership competencies. The paper also contrasts the leadership development strategies of Europe and North America, highlighting the EU's collaborative, policy-aligned approach compared to the more individualized one in North America. The findings underscore the importance of developing leadership competencies to ensure effective governance, particularly in the context of digital and green transitions, and suggest a sustainable framework for the success of future leaders in public administration.
