These three skills of government, dealing with complexity and ambiguity, working with multiplestakeholders, and compelling leadership, represent government at its best.
They issue cutting-edge, discourse shaping reports on controversial topics and conduct public hearings to gain the perspective of multiplestakeholders.
The second key ability that is more regularly called upon in government activity is striving to reconcile the conflicting needs and wants of multiplestakeholders.
When it comes to more advanced strategies that incorporate multiple pages on multiple networks managed by multiplestakeholders (imagine an entire sales team of 6, 000 relationship managers mobilized on social networks), the potential for risk increases exponentially without proper policies and processes.
My studies of the 500 largest American corporations show a highly statistically significant link between those that make a formal public ethical commitment to their stakeholders and multiple measures of corporate performance.
