Similarities and Differences between Public Policy and Political Leadership. And what does Entrepreneurship have to do with it?

By Stephen Tete Mantey

Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Sociology - Work, Education, Organisation, grade: 1.9, University of Erfurt (Willy Brandt School of Public Policy), course: Public Policy, language: English, abstract: In this paper, the authors discussed public policy, political leadership, their similarities, and differences and how entrepreneurship interacts between public policy and political leadership. We are confronted by policies in our daily lives and as students of public policy, our quest is to understand how these policies are made: and if these policies or rules no longer meet our needs or the needs of our communities, then it concerns us how they can be changed. Being equipped with such knowledge, prepares us to work effectively in public or private management positions, as we direct and coordinate resources in a manner that advocates issues in a public and political context. The change we seek to have in our societies is spearheaded by leaders through a process of decision-making. Leadership plays a big role in influencing and supporting others to work enthusiastically towards achieving objectives and in the implementation of policies. This fact creates a thin line between political leadership -the catalyst that transforms potential into reality, and public policy - which involves altering human interactions and relationships that transform culture, social orders, behaviors, and institutions over time impacting society.
