The Forms of Public Administration

by Dennis Randolph, (M.ASCE), Managing Director; Calhoun County Road Commission, Calhoun County, MI,



Part of: Civil Engineering for the Community

Abstract:

Change is always difficult. Even when we want, and expect change we find it hard to accept, it never seems to take the form we expected. It is this lack of control over the form of change that is most disturbing to engineers (and all people), when it involves their profession. But if we look at the history of change we can see rhythms and patterns that should provide insight, and even some comfort, when anticipating change in our own organization.
