However, little research material can be found regarding the management of cities. Demonstrating the issues in this field, Challenges in City Management: A Case Study Approach brings the sometimes dry theories and concepts of urban planning and management to life. The author uses case studies to demonstrate "who," "what," "why," and "how," dramatically increasing readers? ability to comprehend and apply the theories. Incorporating urban management and organizational management theories with actual practice, the author presents case studies based on observations made during her extensive experience. She offers multiple examples of common contemporary city topics ranging from personnel, policy-making, housing, homelessness, transportation, and budgeting. Each study describes and analyzes a scenario, identifying the economic and political factors as well as the often conflicting players and interest groups. The book provides enhanced understanding of the complex environment city administrators work in, helping readers develop improved decision-making and problem-solving skills through the study of real issues city administrators have experienced. The case study methodology used supplies information that is immediately applicable to real-world situations, making it a resource that city administrators can use to improve their public administration and governance skills. 410 0$aPublic administration and public policy. 606 $aMunicipal government$zUnited States 606 $aMunicipal services$zUnited States 615 0$aMunicipal government 615 0$aMunicipal services 676 $a352.160973 686 $aBUS051000$aPOL017000$2bisacsh 700 $aStarnes$b Becky J.$01123490 701 $aStarnes$b Becky J$01123490 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786959703321 996 $aChallenges in City Management$93773801 997 $aUNINA
