Description
Book SynopsisAt their best park, recreation, and tourism organisations can change the world for the better. They can be powerful forces for community revitalisation, environmental and historical education, fitness, connectedness with nature, and much more. But this great potential can only be realised by strong, effective organisations. High Performance Agencies is about the skills and approaches that can lead these organisations to reach their full potential, grow, thrive, and in the process make their communities better places. Because of the technological, demographical, economical, and political changes in society, the old ways of organisational management need to be retooled for the more dynamic environment. This book is written to be used as both a university text for management and administration of park, recreation, and tourism organisations, as well as a guide for practitioners in the field.
