This book offers a practical guide for policy advisors and their managers, grounded in the author''s extensive experience as a senior policy practitioner in central and local government.
Effective policy advising does not proceed in ''cycles'' or neatly ordered ''stages'' and ''steps'', but is first and foremost a relationship built on careful listening, knowing one''s place in the constitutional scheme of things, becoming useful and winning the confidence of decision makers.
The author introduces readers to a public value approach to policy advising that uses collective thinking to address complex policy problems; evidence-informed policy analysis that factors in emotions and values; and the practice of ''gifting and gaining'' (rather than ''trade-offs'') in collaborative governing for the long term. Theory is balanced with practical illustration and processes, tools and techniques, helping readers master the art of communicating what decision-makers need to hear, as well as what they want to hear.
