According to the author, such qualities of leadership as delegation of powers in public authorities, intersectoral cooperation in public administration determine development of leadership in the context of educational trends in foreign countries. The author believes that today an important aspect in the development of public leadership is the mobilization aspect of the efforts of all leaders and subordinates of public authorities and leaders of civil society institutions to overcome crises and do complex reforms in public administration. Such crises include ensuring stability in global fight against the GOVID-19 pandemic. However, problem of public leadership development in this aspect has not been properly reflected in modern scientific sources.The article reveals priority models of public leadership of Western European countries as a prerequisite for formation of successful personality, successful leadership qualities, the trend of which is such an important factor as publicity, because before the 90s of the twentieth century not all government officials in European countries were public.

The solution of new tasks facing the leaders of public administration at the present stage of development of the Ukrainian state requires an increase in the efficiency of public administration and public administration as one of the priorities based on the principles of democracy, nation and human-centrism. The relevance of the topic of updating the principles of leadership development in public administration is closely related to updating management mechanisms in the information society, changing the traditional paradigm of management, characterized by stability, control, competition, homogeneity, egocentrism and heroism to a new one, which is characterized by fluidity, delegation of power, cooperation, heterogeneity, social relevance and modesty. The new management paradigm, which is partially being introduced into public administration and public administration, increasingly requires the introduction of modern leadership principles, which are manifested through the assertion of moral values in the personality of a leader, his behavior models and reforming organizational structures. According to the author, such signs of leadership as delegation of power and cooperation in public administration determine the development of leadership through its consideration in conjunction with the principle of command. The purpose of the article is to reveal the essence of the priority principles of leadership in public management activities, revealing the state of the study of this issue in domestic and foreign literature. The author of the article focuses on the definition – principle, which is analyzed as the basis for any theory or teaching, explanations or guidelines for action, a person’s inner conviction; basic rule of conduct; features in the creation of something, etc. The article reveals the priority principles of leadership as a prerequisite for the formation of a successful personality, successful leadership qualities. The system of principles of leadership development in public administration activities consists of an innovative principle of leadership development; the principle of independence for the development of new rules and regulations; the principle of subsidiarity to ensure the implementation of powers to the bodies of representative power; the principle of socially responsible leadership to ensure ethical relations between subordinates and the leader; the principle of justice, which is a special value measure for maintaining a balance between legal and moral values; the principle of professional and psychological readiness for public administration activities; methodological principle of information and analytical support.

The present article analyzes theoretical aspects of the issues of health-improving physical activity in various branches of science (physical culture and sports, pedagogical and medical sciences). Emphasis is placed on the insufficient development of the chosen topic in the field of public administration discipline. The applied content of the implementation of public administration function in the field of health-improving physical activity is covered through the prism of the globalization approach (WHO guidelines) and the national dimension (National Strategy for health-improving physical activity in Ukraine until 2025). From the standpoint of the globalization dimension, the typology ofhealth-improving physical activity and the main sectors of public administration impact (leisure, occupation, education, life, transport, and employment) are determined. It is substantiated that the public policy of Ukraine in the field of physical activity is formed and implemented on the basis of the following mechanisms: legal mechanism (legislative support for the implementation of public policy measures in this area); institutional mechanism (formation of sports facilities infrastructure easily accessible for different segments of the population; development of conditions for physical activity in the field of education, labor, and leisure); coordination mechanism (interaction of public authorities and local governments as well as intersegmental and intersectoral cooperation in the implementation of targeted activities); socio-psychological mechanism (formation of values and motor competence among the target population); information and communication mechanism (creation of a social media space to promote the benefits of health-improving physical activity); and mechanisms of research support, monitoring and evaluation (development of indicators to assess the level of physical health of various population groups and assess the quality of services for physical fitness). The relevance of a thorough study of the managerial powers of local authorities to implement policies in the field of physical activity at the level of global cities in Ukraine has been confirmed.

Civil servants vary in the degree to which they hold technocratic attitudes. We explore whether bureaucrats’ exposure to politics and politicians is associated with the depoliticization dimension of the technocratic mentality. We use survey data of high-level executives in 19 European countries to explore factors that are associated with executives’ perceptions that removing issues and activities from the realms of politics leads to more farsighted policies. We find that respondents’ level of exposure to politics and politicians is indeed negatively associated with technocratic mentality. Bureaucrats have studied political science or public administration, work closer to politicians (in terms of type of organization), interact with them more frequently, and have more positive perceptions of these interactions tend to have lower levels of technocratic attitudes. Points for practitioners Beliefs affect behaviors and behaviors affect outcomes. Technocratic attitudes may limit the ability of civil servants to work effectively with politicians. We show that educational degrees that promote democratic values and exposure to politicians (particularly positive interactions) are associated with lower levels of technocratic attitudes. Given that a proper balance between political and technical knowledge can enhance organizational performance (Krause et al., 2006), these findings should be taken into account when staffing and structuring public organizations.

Conceptual Foundations

The article is devoted to the study of conceptual foundations of the Agile management, the need and prospects for implementing its methods in the sphere of public authorities. Systemic shortcomings of traditional governance in public authorities hinder the effective, prompt solution of important tasks of local socio-economic development and the country as a whole, and do not respond quickly to changes in the external environment. Now, during the period of active transformation of social, economic, political systems caused by the COVID 19 pandemic, the speed and quality of digitalization of all processes play a significant role. In the future, such changes will only deepen, covering all areas of socio-economic relations. Emphasis is placed on the processes of reforming the sphere of public administration and local self-government, in particular in terms of digitalization of public administration elements. The analysis of preconditions of active use of flexible methods of management in the public sphere is carried out. The introduction of the Agile technologies to project-oriented structures of public authorities is argued. The essence and practical aspects of effective application of Scrum methodology are considered, and the scheme of its introduction to work of bodies of regional management and local government is offered. The article analyzes the experience of practical application of the Agile approach in the public sector in some countries of the world (such as Great Britain, USA, Australia) and defines the basis for further «State Agile» development in Ukraine. The relevance of further the Agile approach popularization in public administration is confirmed by the need for changes in public-management relations, and prospects for the public digitalization in the following areas such as: development and implementation of a strategy for digital transformation of regions; implementations of digital solutions for increasing the public authorities' efficiency; ensuring electronic interaction between national, regional and local registries; digital democracy development, and so on.

Public Administration Reform

The modernization of the management system and the knowledge management model is needed in the context of the public administration reform, taking into account the concept of decentralization and Good Governance. That is why the article focuses on the author’s approach to substantiating the formation of a modern knowledge system in public management and administration in Ukraine. It is proved that the approach to the knowledge system formation should be based on the identification of the needs of public administration objects. The need to comply with the necessary diversity law for a management subject of public entity regarding its knowledge of the entity has been identified. The content of the principle «from general to specific» for the objects of public administration is considered. The formation structure of the basic knowledge system in the public sphere is presented, which unites a number of blocks. The first block deals with the system of basic knowledge of public management and administration. The second block deals with the idea of a public authorities system at different levels. The third block concerns the formation of basic knowledge about public service. The fourth block concerns the formation of a basic knowledge system about current trends in the development of domestic public administration. The fifth block deals with the knowledge about the development and implementation of public policy and implementation of public administration. The sixth block deals with the consideration of public administration as a deliberate activity to establish internal procedures and processes in public administration to ensure their smooth functioning. The seventh block concerns the knowledge system for ensuring social stability. The eighth block is a glossary of basic terms and the ninth is a bibliography. The proposed approach is the scientific substantiation of the development of educational and professional programs of the basic textbook and standards for the specialty 281 – «Public Management and Administration». Keywords: knowledge, public administration, the necessary diversity law, public policy, public service, public authorities, public stability.
