Management activities in the field of wellness physical health activity of population in large cities of Europe: analysis of approaches

Introduction. WHO has adopted a Strategy for Physical Activity and calls on national governments and local governments to update this area. The priority of this area is most obvious in large cities, whose population leads a predominantly sedentary lifestyle, resulting in an increased risk of disease and general deterioration in health both nationally and globally. The purpose of the study is to study the mechanisms of stimulating the population to develop physical activity, involvement in physical culture and mass sports in the activities of local authorities. Analysis of models of social interaction in order to form the commitment of the population to physical activity with the implementation of this value in all spheres of life. Material and methods - analysis of laws, comparative analysis, logical method. The results of the study - in some countries a network of healthy municipalities has been established and operates as part of the implementation of measures to support physical activity. In the EU, local governments have been paying close attention to this for several decades, accumulating a wide range of tools for effective interaction between government, the public and private sectors. Conclusion - this experience is extremely useful for Ukraine, namely in the study of the functions, forms and methods of physical activity management in large cities, especially in the context of the COVID19 pandemic.

Main directions of development of public administration in the field of military security at the national and global levels

The formation of a common security environment, prevention and elimination of military conflicts, achieving mutual international understanding and innovative approaches to the organization of public administration structures in this area with the involvement of non-state actors and the formation of appropriate ecosystems in security environment are determined among the main directions of public administration development in the field of military security. Based on the methodology of public administration, the current state of public administration systems reforms is considered and the priorities for the development of public administration in the field of military security at the national and global levels of administration are identified. The general tendencies of public administration development are identified; ambiguity and variability in estimations of results of administrative reforms are emphasized. Arguments are presented that the problems of social interaction, responsibility and democracy in modern management practices are transposed to public administration in the field of military security, in particular in the implementation of new approaches to management of innovations. Transformational changes in public administration in the field of military security at the national and global levels are considered logical, expedient and possible especially against the background of administrative reforms processes and implementation of open innovations, ecosystems and management of innovations in the field of military security facilities administration. Innovations in the field of security suggest reformatting, in particular, of industrial policy of defence by identifying different instruments to enhance opportunities for openness with different degrees of the latter for actors not previously involved in military security and defence issues. Innovation has been shown to involve reshaping, in particular, industrial defense policy by identifying different tools for enhancing openness with varying degrees of openness) for actors not yet involved in military security and defense. Flexibility in the management of strategic ecosystems and a dynamic vision of interdependence between actors affect the ability of the system to operate in conditions of open innovation and ensure adequate management of openness

Evaluation of personnel of the State border service of Ukraine

The article reveals the technology of assessing the professional suitability of officials to perform their functions on the basis of the method of modeling and comparing assessments with the necessary parameters for the position, ie with the model. The term "model" is used as a holistic description of the coordination of the requirements of the social system (SS) with the possibilities of their implementation. The model in this case is a professional standard, which is developed for each position. The professional standard is the agreed standard by which employees should work. This method - the method of evaluation using a professional standard, is the result of the implementation of the principle of consistency in the construction of the model. According to the authors, the method is not only novelty approach, but also versatility. It is possible to estimate by means of a professional standard not only the expert, but also group, potential of collective, it is possible to make comparisons, to define weaknesses and strongnesses of the organizations. The technique developed by authors is offered that allows to carry out various necessary variations with the estimated signs, including visual display of results in various forms.Job modeling refers to ideal or imaginary modeling (as opposed to material, substantive, when modeling physical and mathematical objects) and is based largely on the idealization of the object. In our opinion, at no stage can the model be embodied in an absolutely accurate copy due to the unforeseen influence of many external factors.Modeling of evaluation characteristics in personnel activity is a necessary element in the real assessment of the state of affairs in the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine. That is why their importance is growing in the context of its reform, taking into account the impact on it of both negative and positive factors.

Agile and Lean approaches: possibilities of application in local self-government bodies of Ukraine

The article considers the concepts and history of Agile and Lean, the possibility of application in local self-government in Ukraine, analysis of the experience of local government in other countries. The aim of the article is to find ways to learn the best experience to improve the work of local self-government in Ukraine.Foreign publications related to the possibility of implementing the Agile methodology in the field of public administration and local self-government are analyzed. Examples of interaction and mutual influence of Agile and Lean are given. Demonstrates how references in international ISO standards to the above-mentioned methodologies, values and ways of thinking are used. ISO standards for management systems are universal and can be applied by both private and public sector organizations. One of the main ideas behind the standards is continuous improvement based on the PDCA cycle, and organizations that have implemented management systems such as ISO 9001 can use international best practices, tools and techniques to improve efficiency and effectiveness, satisfaction of customers and other interested parties and reduce unwanted losses. Such methods are those which are considered in this article. Historically, most management practices have emerged in the private sector, driven by a competitive environment. And then adapts to public administration and local government. In Ukraine, the process of decentralization of local self-government is gaining momentum. Sustainable development of local self-government is the basis for ensuring the comfort and quality of life of the local communities. In a rapidly changing environment, there is a need to find new management approaches. It is proposed to conduct short-term pilot projects to test the Agile method in local governments. It is advisable to include consideration of the methods specified in the article in training and retraining of employees. Continuous improvement requires, first of all, a change in organizational culture and awareness and involvement of staff for the most effective implementation of world best practices.

State educational policy through the prism of modern processes in the field of knowledge reproduction

The article analyzes the modern state educational policy. It is emphasized that the main tasks for the Ukrainian state are to determine social, economic, global and other factors that have both positive and negative impact on the formation of state educational policy, on the model of building educational policy capable of solving current global problems of humankind. It is emphasized that the conceptual analysis of the possibilities of solving global educational problems should be considered in the historical aspect of this issue, which will provide an opportunity to obtain methodologically comprehensive results.It is emphasized that the dialectical, phenomenological, structural-functional method, the method of collecting and analyzing the original empirical material, content analysis of documents, the method of building temporal models of systems development should be used as basic methods of research of state educational policy. A brief description of the seven stages of the evolution of educational policy concepts and their relationship with the process of reproduction and accumulation of knowledge is given. The evolution of personal and public interests in educational policy is summarized by building temporal spatial models, analyzes a number of global educational problems faced by each nation state in the XXI century, identifies the unique role of balanced state educational policy in preventing threats to the reproduction of scientific knowledge. The principles of realization of the national educational policy are defined: establishment of cooperation of consumers and creators of innovative technologies; breakthrough in the creation and application of information and communication technologies; unification of the global educational space; prevention of increasing the digital divide; elimination of personnel donations of individual countries; establishing flexibility in co-financing education; continuing education. It is established that the implementation of all formulated ethos in the national educational policy will provide an effective result of the functioning of the educational sector, in accordance with the demands of the XXI century, and will protect from current threats in the field of knowledge reproduction.

Formation of moral and ethical bases of public service in Ukraine

The article is devoted to the definition of priority areas for improving the moral and ethical foundations of public service and substantiation of the algorithm of their formation. It is revealed that the important qualities that are necessary for a public servant in professional activity are the ability to self-organize, to have the skills of self-management, the ability to rationally set goals, bordering on high rates of intellectual development and education.The algorithm of formation of moral and ethical bases of public service which is offered to consider through a administrative cycle consisting in consistent and complex realization of functions of management, such as: planning (development of the Concept of formation of moral and ethical bases of public service and a complex of actions for its realization) is substantiated; organization and coordination (creation of a "strong" organizational culture; creation of coordinating bodies; organization of continuous professional and ethical education and self-education); motivation (application of moral and psychological methods of motivation; providing public servants with a decent level of remuneration, which will depend on the results of their work; encouragement of creative initiatives, etc.) and control and evaluation (internal and external control over ethical principles, norms, standards of behavior; use of tools for assessing the level of formation of moral and ethical competencies of a public servant).The priority directions of improvement of moral and ethical bases of public service by: legal regulation of the given question (development and acceptance of the Code of Ethics of the public servant at the central level and Rules of ethical behavior in each separate body of public power) are defined; creation of special structural units (Department of Public Service Ethics at the central level and separate departments or specialists in the field personnel management service); development of organizational culture; updating the content of programs of professional and ethical training of public servants and their self-education; improving the motivation of professional activity of public servants; implementation of systematic control and assessment of the level of formation of moral and ethical competencies of a public servant.

Problems of the health care system and directions for their solution: a view of science and practice

The study allowed us to establish the development of scientific knowledge in public administration, which is to expand its subject-matter scope and methods of studying the processes occurring in the field of health care. In addition, it is proved that the proposals of scientists to expand the forms and content of mechanisms for implementing public administration and public policy in the field of health care are important in the development of methodology and organization of public administration science. The positions of domestic and foreign scientists on the peculiarities of public health management are analyzed. Thus, Bugaytsov S. G. studied the problems of state regulation of the cancer care system, Yarosh N. P. devoted research to regulating the development of social standards in the field of health, Ringach N. O. studied the health care system as a component of national security. Scientific researches of Zhilka K. I. related to the development of cooperation with international organizations in the field of public administration of children's health. Firsova OD improved the mechanisms of geoinformation support of the state health care management in Ukraine. Mokretsov SE studied the problems of public administration of reproductive health in Ukraine in a demographic crisis. Kovalenko T. Yu. developed mechanisms of public administration in the field of sanatorium and resort provision of children in Ukraine. Jafarova D. M. suggested ways to improve the management system of primary health care reform at the local level on the example of the city of Lviv. In general, the scientific achievements of domestic science, allows us to talk about the diversity of the health care system as an object of public administration. As a result, a map of the development of public administration science in the context of a separate object-subject field of the health care system has been formed.

Foreign experience of leadership development for Ukraine (on the example of Germany and Poland)

At the current stage of Ukrainian state integration into European community, country leaders face new challenges that require improving efficiency of public management and public administration based on democracy and human-centeredness. Urgency of public leadership development in Ukraine is closely related to the foreign countries’ experience study on the mechanisms of formation and development of public leadership, characterized by a high level of moral values, responsibility, communication, modesty. The new management paradigm, being introduced in public administration and public management in Ukraine, also requires introduction of new qualities in public leadership, manifested through establishment of moral values in the leader's personality, leader’s behavior in public service reform. 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 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 author of the article proposes to consider the features of the development of public leadership in Germany and Poland. Leadership qualities such as the ability to educate themselves, delegation of authority, transparent (transparency, openness and activation) and transformational cooperation. They determine a new style of leadership development in Western European countries, which will be useful for implementation in Ukraine. Therefore, the relevance of the article is beyond doubt.

Forecasting personal response to economic state crises

The article examines the concepts of "crisis", "crisis state", "economic crisis", the main characteristics of the crisis, considers the possible options for the behavior of the subject in a crisis state, namely constructive and destructive. The course of the 2008 economic crisis, which manifested itself in a massive drop in production, a drop in demand and prices for raw materials, an increase in unemployment, and a spread to the monetary, fiscal, and social areas, has worsened the social welfare and expectations of businesses and ordinary citizens have been analyzed. The crisis affected not only the economic structures but also all branches of Ukrainian society, social groups, and almost everyone, which significantly affected social relations and the psychological state of people.It should be noted that the crises of economic, political, and social nature inevitably affect public health. Especially strongly such processes determine the emotional and stress response of a person, which is the basis for the formation of pathological processes and in particular diseases associated with mental disorders. Therefore, to avoid negative personal reactions due to the economic crisis, it is important to be able to adapt to a crisis state, to control one's emotions, to have a balanced mental state, a sufficient level of resilience, to use constructive strategies of coping behavior to resist psychological stress without negative consequences and this requires the implementation of specific government programs.It is determined that under the conditions of long-term military aggression, deepening and expansion of negative trends in the economy, low level of confidence in the system of public administration, weak financial discipline, high corruption, unsatisfactory attractiveness of investments, and excessive debt burden, the current economic dynamics of Ukraine are extremely weak, that demonstrates the high risk of crisis recurrence. Therefore, overcoming the risks of new crisis trends, ensuring long-term macroeconomic stability, and preventing negative personal reactions resulting from the crisis remains one of the main tasks of the economic policy of Ukraine.

Modeling and implementation of technological principles of public administration development in territorial communities

The article focuses on increasing the role of the technological factor in increasing the efficiency of public administration. The results of research of a problem of technological maintenance of the organization of administrative activity are resulted. It is noted that, despite the intensive development and growth of information and computer technology in management, they are still considered as a tool, rather than as an independent effective factor in improving the quality and effectiveness of management influences on managed objects. It is shown that in the conditions of continuous transformational changes in a society activation of processes of technologization of administrative activity essentially influences results of activity of the managed systems and to a large extent depends on speed and quality of administrative decisions. Based on the generalization of the existing experience of management processes and modern scientific developments in this direction, it is proposed to create an independent system technological unit to ensure the organization and implementation of management tasks to achieve development goals and functions of their implementation. The architecture of the technological platform of management is developed and substantiated, the list and structure of information-computer models in the decision of administrative problems with application of principles of science of cybernetics and smart technologies is defined. The initial methodological prerequisites for the formation of technological foundations of innovative management influences are based on a combination of components of public administration theory, organizational theory, cybernetic theory, economic and mathematical theory and the developed concept of optimization and technological development of public administration. The model of a technological platform is offered. The structure and schemes of interrelations of models of the technological platform, built using system process and design approaches, differ in the typicality of algorithms and methods for solving management problems, they can be used in management systems in any field of activity.
