“In an increasingly interactive world knowledge of how networks operate and evolve, and how they can be managed effectively, is increasingly important to students and practitioners of public administration, public management and public policy In the first edition of this excellent book, the authors developed the idea of “process management” – contrasting it with other forms of such as “project-based” management – highlighting the advantages of using a process lens as a guide to producing better public sector outcomes In this thoroughly revised and expanded new edition, the authors continue this pursuit, adding detail and nuance to their analyses of the best (and not-so-good) strategies that can be used to enhance collaboration between public, civil society and other actors in the pursuit of public value and the public good.” Michael Howlett, Burnaby Mountain Chair, Department of Political Science, Simon Fraser University and Professor, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, National University of Singapore “Management in Networks (second edition) is a fundamental guide for policy makers and managers who wants to consciously decide and act in today’s uncertain and complex world, where all decisions involve many actors, with different values and targets.” Giovanni Azzone, Professor of Management and Rector Emeritus, Politecnico di Milano, Italy “Theories of management and decision-making abound, but how we put these into practice? The new edition of this classic book reveals all the nuts and bolts to both practitioners and scientists.” Lasse Gerrits, Professor for the Governance of Complex and Innovative Technological Systems, Otto-Friedrich University Bamberg, Germany “Hans de Bruijn and Ernst ten Heuvelhof show how management can deal with uncertainty Their incredibly valuable ‘rules of the game’ for networked decision-making allow for the outcome of the process to emerge and for actors to subsequently ascribe coherence.” Arthur Petersen, Professor of Science, Technology and Public Policy, University College London This page intentionally left blank Management in Networks Getting what you want – even if you are the boss – isn’t always easy Almost every organisation, big or small, works among a network of competing interests Whether these are governments pushing through policies, companies trying to increase profits, or even families deciding where to move house, rarely can decisions be made in isolation from competing interests both within the organisation and outside it In this accessible and straightforward account, Hans de Bruijn and Ernst ten Heuvelhof cast light on multi-stakeholder decision-making Using plain language, they reveal the nuts and bolts of decision-making within the numerous dilemmas and tensions at work Drawing on a diverse range of illustrative examples throughout, their perceptive analysis examines how different interests can either support or block change, and the strategies available for managing a variety of stakeholders The second edition of Management in Networks incorporates a wider spread of international cases, a new chapter giving an overview of different network types, and a new chapter looking at digital governance and the impact of big data on networks This insightful text is invaluable reading for students of management and organisational studies, plus practitioners – or actors – operating in a range of contexts Hans de Bruijn is Professor of Organisation and Management at Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands His research is on networked, multi-actor governance, both between and within organisations Ernst ten Heuvelhof is Professor of Public Administration at Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands His research focuses on decision-making by actors – both public and private – who operate in networks and have diverse interests This page intentionally left blank Management in Networks Second edition Hans de Bruijn and Ernst ten Heuvelhof Second edition published 2018 by Routledge Park

136 Preface This book is about decision-making and change processes in our interconnected world In an interconnected world with many players, often with wicked problems and with plenty of dynamism, decision-making or change is often nonlinear and erratic Sometimes decision-making even seems like a chaotic process, where no single pattern can be recognised In this book we unravel decision-making and show that there are patterns in this seemingly messy process We describe the strategies of the players involved in decision-making We show to what results the sum of these strategies lead – how they impact processes of decision-making and change We not only describe and analyse these strategies and processes, but we also answer the question concerning what effective strategies there are for making decisions and creating change in an interconnected world Many of these insights are contraintuitive for those who believe in linear, project-based decision-making This book is intended for anyone interested in decision-making and change, particularly for those who are subject experts in a specific area – whether that is infrastructure or the environment, safety or innovation – and who are surprised every time by the chaotic process of decision-making Hans de Bruijn Ernst ten Heuvelhof Processes and content 135 characteristics of a mafia It’s true that within networks certain game rules apply, but as their sole aim is to support the power game, they only have a utilitarian function Moreover, the mafia also has strict game rules that are equally utilitarian Their purpose is to preserve the organisation The opposite of this is an approach in which a problem is looked at from a content point of view and in which justice is done to facts and causalities There is no investment in power games; the investment instead is in careful analyses These analyses lead to outcomes that can clash with the interests of certain parties – possibly even with the interests of a majority of these parties A party with integrity will, however, be willing to learn from the analyses Such a learning process will give a party more than will the constant hawking of its own interests The adage ‘speaking truth to power’ is applicable here So which picture is correct? The answer depends on several factors, including the type of problems being discussed As soon as unstructured problems are involved, it becomes impossible to talk about THE problem and THE solution Multiple definitions of the problem and the solution are possible If such a problem has to be solved in a network, the different perceptions the parties have of the problem or of its solution are justified It is then also wrong to talk about a personal interest versus a general interest Every party in a network has a justified interest This means that the images talked about above can change A ‘careful analysis’ of an unstructured problem can lead to a problem definition and solution that fits in with the perception of one of the parties There are, however, other careful analyses possible that lead to other problem definitions and solutions that fit in with the perceptions of other parties If a party carries out an analysis and then takes the standpoint that this means the problem and the solution are known, this does not justice to other perceptions and interests It makes one think of a form of Kremlinology: There is only one fixed definition of the truth that is imposed on others as far as possible The result is that learning is impossible A network approach is based on the concept that every party in a network has his or her own perception of the truth and, therefore, also has justifiable interests These interests are respected, and every party is entitled to bring his or her interests into the decision-making In so doing a party may behave strategically, as long as they play by the rules of the game These game rules are always aimed at cooperation and moderating the strategic behaviour of the parties in the network A decision that can count on sufficient support from the participating parties is arrived at in a process of negotiation Decisionmaking in networks thus approaches the democratic ideal: There is plurality, and a decision is made that reflects the diversity of problem and solution definitions and that is sufficiently widely supported The four images given here are, naturally, ideal-typed Table 8.1 makes it clear that decision-making in a network always involves the risk that it will develop into a pure power-game with mafia characteristics However, it also makes it clear that thinking of a network-approach as a deviant form of decision-making is wrong 136 Processes and content Table 8.1 Negative judgment Positive judgement Hierarchy and linear decision-making Kremlin: Unilateral decisionmaking is imposed on other actors Networks and messy decision-making Mafia: Power and interests determine the course of the decision-making process Speaking truth to power: Facts and analyses determine the course of the decision-making process The democratic ideal: All parties have legitimate interests, and decision-making reflects this plurality Bibliography Albright, M (2003) Madam secretary: A memoir New York: Miramax Andersson, M., & Mol, A P (2002) The Netherlands in the UNFCCC process–Leadership between ambition and reality International Environmental Agreements: Politics, Law and Economics, 2(1), 49–68 Andrews, K M., & Delahaye, B L (2000) Influences on knowledge processes in organizational learning: The psychosocial filter Journal of Management Studies, 37 (6), 797–810 Arrow, K (1951) Social choice and individual values Hoboken, NJ: John Wiley & Sons Arrow, K J (1963) Uncertainty and the welfare economics of medical care American Economic Review, 53(5), 941–973 Bendor, J B (1985) Parallel systems: Redundancy in government Berkeley: University of California Press Bó, P D (2005) Cooperation under the shadow of the future: experimental evidence from infinitely repeated games The American Economic Review, 95(5), 1591–1604 Bovens, M., Geveke, H., & Vries, J D (1993) Strikt vertrouwelijk: lekken in het openbaar bestuur Beleid en Maatschappij, 20(2), 61–80 Brands, H W (2004) George Bush and the Gulf War of 1991 Presidential Studies Quarterly, 34(1), 113–131 Brattström, A., & Richtnér, A (2014) Good cop–bad cop: Trust, control, and the lure of integration Journal of Product Innovation Management, 31(3), 584–598 Bruijn, H de (2017) The art of framing: How politicians convince us that they are right Haarlem, the Netherlands: Etopia BV Bruijn, H de, Heuvelhof, E F ten, & Kuit, M (1999) Sport 7: de opkomst en ondergang van een Nederlandse sportzender Antwerp, Belgium: Aristos Uitgeverij Bruijn, H de, Heuvelhof, E F ten, & Veld, R J in ’t (2000) Procesmanagement Over procesontwerp en besluitvorming the Netherlands: Academic Service Bruijn, H de, Heuvelhof, E F ten, & Veld, R J in’t (2010) Process management: Why project management fails in complex decision making processes (2nd ed.)
