SELF-MANAGEMENT IN PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION OF FIRE
SAFETY SYSTEM IN UKRAINE
The relevance for the issues of effective public administration of the fire
safety system development, which is caused by the need to ensure a high level of fire
safety in Ukraine and minimize fire effects and the recovery costs, is the
basis for a research of an approach to create a self-management model in public administration of fire safety system.
The known domestic and foreign researchers of this problem who emphasized
the importance of addressing self-management issues are O.S. Anisimov, P.K. Anokhin, D. Gibson, A. Knyazev, S.P.
Kurdyumov, S.P. Mosov, V.E. Hitsenko, D.S. Chernavskii, I.I. Chernelyuk, G.P.
Shchedrovitski and others.
The self-management model in public administration of fire safety is proposed
to be built using a set of principles: the principle of "purposeful
behavior", the principle of "adaptation", the principle of "external
turbulence", the principle of "internal resistance", the
principle of "ability to predict", the principle of "unity of
parts in the whole" and the principle of "distinction between
"positive" and "negative" organization".
The initial organization of the fire safety
sphere public administration in general can be imagined as follows. Within the
management process public authorities make decisions u to achieve a
specified goal in the fire safety sphere. End of
purpose evaluation is normally carried out by comparison between standard
values of performance indicators n0 and obtained
values n resulted
from completion of assignments z, defined by
the fire safety public administration authorities.
Occurrence
of differences Δ = n0 – n indicates the potential of future crisis situation in the fire safety sphere due to the failure of the objective
to be achieved. The process of public administration and the condition of the fire safety sphere are affected by changes of
external f, f ’
(financial and economic factors, scientific and technological factors,
socio-economic factors, natural factors, etc.) and internal g, g ’
(human factors, equipment, financial resources, etc.) environments condition.
It should be noted that according to
modern experience the basic principle of administration is management "by deflection".
This approach does not always produce a positive
result and sometimes provides for a record of negative facts only. The
principle of administration "by
indignation" is hardly used due to poor theoretical development of the
methodology of detecting critical situations in the fire safety sphere at
early stages of their possible occurrence – when identifying symptoms of a
crisis situation. Due to the fact that the self-management outline in public
administration of the fire
safety sphere is actually
absent, there is a significant dependence of the management quality on the
command of management art by leaders in the system of fire safety
public administration.
Taking the
foregoing into consideration here are the grounds for the general
structure of the self-management model in public administration of fire safety system. Under the
principle of the "purposeful
behavior" initial results of the fire safety
sphere are to be analyzed by public management authorities
taking into account the values of differences Δ. Thus, the
structure of the self-management model should have analyzer Ap that will
determine availability of differences Δ between standard values n0 determined
as a result of the approved management solution u and controlled outputs n for each
fixed process of tasks performance in the fire
safety sphere, as well as their influence on the degree of completion of these
tasks z.
The information obtained from
analyzer Ap is
to enter optimizer V, the
function of which is to develop solutions
aimed at restructuring processes of
solving problems
in the fire safety sphere to improve their phased and output performance. Implementation of each organizational decision will be made by means of actuating
element Y,
which should
determine the
specific mechanism of
its implementation.
Similarly to analyzer Ap the structure
of the self-management model is to be complimented
with analyzer of public administration process Aду.
Using the principle of "adaptation" requires consideration of the relation between changes
in conditions of
external f, f ’ (principle
of the "external turbulence") and internal
g, g ’
environments (the principle of the "internal resistance") and the goal to be achieved. The
principle of "adaptation"
is complementary to the principle "purposeful
behavior".
Using the principles like
the principle of
"ability to predict",
the principle of "unity of the parts in
the whole" and
the principle of "distinction
between "positive" and "negative"
organization" does not require any additional
elements and links to the self-management
model as they are interconnected with the principles
of "purposeful
behavior" and "adaptation" and are to be implemented in optimizer V.
There is another principle – the
principle of "external additions" which requires assessment of the functioning
quality of the hierarchical public administration process by highest governing
bodies of the State. For this purpose it is necessary to introduce additional
feedback paths.
Thus, the self-management model will include analyzers Ap of processes for tasks
performance in the fire safety sphere and analyzer Aду of the
fire safety sphere public administration process, measurer
of changes in external and internal environments S, optimizer
V
and actuating element Y. Similar outline of self-management should be present in every
subsystem of the general system of fire safety public administration in Ukraine.
