The article considers the system of criteria for evaluating innovation activity in the system of public management of socio-economic processes. It is offered to use not exact values of this or that characteristic, and their indistinct analogues for the description of processes in social systems. It is determined that new knowledge and innovations determine the pace of scientific and technological progress, the viability of enterprises and the competitiveness of economies. This necessitates the search for strategies to stimulate innovation activity in the field of public administration, focused on the formation of a comprehensive system of motivations, the creation of a modern organizational and economic model of activity, the introduction of monitoring and evaluation technologies. At the same time, there is a lack of a systematic approach to the assessment of innovation activity in the public administration system, which is accompanied by an increase in the risks of innovation and negatively affect the introduction of new technologies. In this regard, the problem of selection and implementation of an effective system for monitoring and rating construction is relevant. Existing in theory and practice approaches to innovation management and assessment of the level of its development do not contain clear, unambiguously interpreted criteria for choosing a strategy, as well as tools and methods to stimulate innovation. In addition, insufficient attention is paid to the organizational aspects of the implementation of innovation strategies. The list of the main characteristics for classification of innovative activity and construction of rating monitoring is resulted. Each of the subsystems is characterized by its fuzzy index. Thus, a combination of indexes describing various aspects of system operation is a universal code that can be used to classify and rank. The principles of analysis of quantitative indicators are also used as a methodological basis in the formation of the methodology for assessing innovation activity. Indicators should be used in the development of further strategies and the introduction of rating technologies to monitor the use of modern management techniques, the use of managerial innovations, digitalization of public administration, etc.

InAdministrative Behavior, Herbert Simon proposed a science of administration where organizational decisions represent the primary units of analysis. In constructing a conceptual framework to guide that science, Simon drew heavily on insights from cognitive psychology. Since its publication in 1947,Administrative Behaviorhas inspired researchers investigating institutional and organizational practices across many settings. Here, consideration is given to the impact ofAdministrative Behaviorin public policy and public administration. Four legacies are highlighted. They are: scholarship on incrementalism in policy-making, scholarship on agenda setting, scholarship on choice architecture, and scholarship on expertise and learning organizations. Continuous improvements in information technology and its application, combined with increasing citizen demands for more effective and efficient government, suggest ideas introduced inAdministrative Behaviorwill continue to influence theory and practice in policy design and public management for years to come.

Innovative processes are the foundation of the current method of management and a means of providing competitive advantages to individual enterprises (firms), industries, regions, countries. Strengthening the innovative orientation of the socio-economic formation of Ukraine seems to be a strategic task of the national financial policy, guidelines for the creation of a competitive state economy. A significant basis for the development of Ukraine’s competitive advantages in the international arena is the innovative activity of industrial production entities. The formation of innovative activities of current enterprises insists on the development of a fresh mechanism of interaction between producers and customers on the basis of coordination of their interests. Creators of innovative ideas and producers of innovative products (services) are obliged to anticipate the need for new goods, to encourage customers to use new technologies and new products in their activities. Therefore, the innovative activity of the enterprise as soon as possible must be used to use an effective tool – innovation management, which involves the use of tools, methods, technologies of management throughout the formation of innovation policy of the enterprise. The current circumstances of highly competitive markets necessitate the renewal and modernization of production technologies, development and production of new competitive products, the application of new approaches to management and organization of production, which can only guarantee investments aimed at innovation. Thus, the object of scientific research in the area of management of innovation investment processes is to identify more flexible opportunities for mobilization of financial resources and improve the mechanism of their direction to innovative development. Since the creation of innovation policy of the enterprise must focus on the market and the consumer, market research should be conducted, which should be preceded by a thorough study of the innovative product.

Abstract The construction industry is generally known to be resistive to change and reluctant to embrace new technologies. Innovation, which might be described as the successful exploitation of new ideas, is usually seen as the key to unlocking the industry’s potential. Although there is no doubt that some progress has been made, construction innovation still occurs in a random manner, not as a systemic and managed process. Regardless of the growing number of studies on construction innovation management, there is still a lack of research that identify, compile, classify, and summarize the innovation enablers in construction. Thus, based on a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), this paper aims to provide a holistic understanding of the key elements that enable systemic innovation in construction from a firm-level perspective. The review incorporated data from 38 articles to establish a set of 15 enablers of innovation in construction firms, such as innovation culture, external collaboration (open innovation), knowledge management, and upper management support. The enablers were classified into five different aspects of innovation management: strategic, organizational, human, processual, and financial. The review also sought to identifypractices, routines, methods, or tools that can be adopted to increase innovation activity in construction firms.

The African continent is facing a number of administrative crises. The recent decline of public administration on the continent has forced some African countries to re-assess their governance systems. Their public service reforms are evidence of the emergence of New Public Management (NPM) for improved public sector administrative structures and operations. This article discusses the paradigm shifts from New Public Administration to New Public Management, as a means of meeting public administration challenges in Africa. At a contextual level, the paper examines the practical implementation by some African countries of NPM and the outcomes of NPM-led reform in these countries.Keywords: Public Administration (PA); New Public Administration (NPA); New Public Management (NPM); Public Value Management (PVM); paradigm; paradigm shift; public service reforms; governanceDisciplines: Public Management; Political Science; Sociology; Economics

Information technology (IT) is often less emphasized in coursework related to public administration education, despite the growing need for technological capabilities in those joining the public sector workforce. This coupled with a lesser emphasis on e-government/IT skills by accreditation standards adds to the widening gap between theory and practice in the field. This study examines the emphasis placed on e-government/IT concepts in Master of Public Administration (MPA) and Master of Public Policy (MPP) programs, either through complete course offerings or through related courses such as public management, strategic planning, performance measurement and organization theory. Based on a content analysis of their syllabi, the paper analyzes the extent to which the IT/e-government courses in MPA/Master of Public Policy programs address the Network of Schools of Public Policy, Affairs, and Administration competency standards, and further discuss the orientation of the courses with two of the competencies: management and policy. Specifically, are e-government/IT courses more management-oriented or policy-oriented? Do public management, strategic planning, performance measurement, and organization theory courses address IT concerns?

The purpose of the article is to generalize the trends in the development of social risks in modern society and to identify the features of public administration in minimizing their negative consequences. It is established that changing social positions and public consciousness in conditions of openness of social systems creates new risks, and the analysis of their influence on social behavior becomes one of the most relevant areas in public-management science. The need to study this problem is also conditioned by the need to find ways to minimize risks and influence them in favorable directions for social development. This problem in the conditions of the Ukrainian society, being in the conditions of increased risk, acquires a special urgency. It is substantiated that with the development of scientific knowledge of risks, the latter are increasingly being considered as a systemic object of study. With this approach, given the relevance of this topic, the state-managerial aspect of risk is put on the forefront as the basis for its perception, formation and reproduction. It is proved that risk is an integral component of the knowledge society, its reverse side. If we consider knowledge as a prerequisite for social action and proceed from its relative completeness, then the risk assuming the necessity of making a choice in the conditions of incomplete information becomes its logical consequence and integral characteristic. It is determined that in order to overcome the contradictions in the formation and development of social risks in modern society, it is necessary to expand research capabilities and knowledge itself, primarily in the direction of scientific justification of the state influence on prevention of social risks or minimization of their negative consequences. It is found out that modern social risks have the ability to transform into other types of uncertainties, therefore the knowledge society is able not only to accumulate risks, but to cause really explosive situations. It is proved that risk, like any phenomenon, can be considered as a process that takes place in time, but the dynamics of risk is extremely complex, and the identification of the stages of its development is relatively arbitrary. It is substantiated that the most important from the point of view of public management is the stage of potential risk, as consideration of its content creates the basis for a more integrated and focused approach to minimizing the possibility of a social crisis, reducing its dangerous consequences, preventing state management loss, and systemic collapse. The main feature of this stage is social tension, which requires effective measures on the part of the state. Thus, the modernization of society is steadily leading to an increase in the number of its constituent elements, an ever increasing variety of their interrelationships. As a result, the qualitative and quantitative nature of the consequences of this process changes: the probability of the emergence of new forms of social contradictions increases, and the scale of potential social cataclysms grows. This situation requires drastic changes in the system of public administration with regard to the formation of appropriate mechanisms to prevent and minimize the consequences of new types of social risks.

The article examines the stratification of human capital as a categorical unit of a research in the digital information space. The necessity of cognition of the properties and living conditions of generations arising from the nature of functioning in new categories of social and economic interaction is revealed. The authors substantiate the thesis that the study of the complex structure of human capital, prospects and dynamics of interaction is one of the most urgent tasks in the information space. Scientific research in this area can provide an invaluable contribution to improving the system of public administration and management of human capital in modern Russia. The article proposes the use of a cenological approach to the study and assessment of human capital as a theoretical and methodological basis for modeling and managing social systems. The goal is to develop approaches to the creation of a targeted structure of human capital, allowing the construction of a key social image in the information and digital environment.
