If we want to fix the problem, the data is very clear about the fact that we should stop deployment practices and move towards a professional public service, writes The Ethics Institute's Kris Dobie.
President Cyril Ramaphosa receiving the fifth and final Judicial Commission of Inquiry into Allegations of State Capture from Raymond Zondo which heavily criticized cadre deployment.If we want to fix the problem, the data is clear about the fact that we should stop deployment practices and move towards a professional public service, writes When you have a problem, the logical thing to do is to try to fix it.
The Ethics Institute has been doing research into public sector ethics in numerous studies since 2015. One problem that we have been trying to come to grips with is how to address ethical leadership challenges in local government. We are working on the assumption that most people who work in local government are ethical individuals, but that there may be systemic features of local government that make it difficult for them to actively live out their values.
The research is noticeably clear on the fact that, far from solving anything, cadre deployment is a real cause of corruption and plays a significant part in capture at the local, provincial, and national levels.The one challenge that we have is that politicians are responsible for appointing heads of department in the public service, as well as all senior managers in local government.
