چکیده انگلیسی مقاله |
Purpose: Effective policy implementation is critical to realizing intended benefits and success. This is especially true for crisis policies, where the stakes are high. Understanding the link between policy formulation and implementation is crucial for identifying challenges and strategies for effective crisis policy implementation at the local level. This study aims to identify and categorize obstacles and opportunities for effective implementation of Covid-19 crisis policies in the executive bodies of Kurdistan province. Design/ methodology/ approach: Using a qualitative case study approach, data was collected through interviews with 32 employees from five government organizations: the health network, education network, banking network, traffic police, and governorate organizations. Research Findings: Data were analyzed based on a conceptual model consisting of fourteen factors. The study identified several obstacles and inhibiting factors, including a lack of facilities, non-cooperation of the people, insufficient financial support from the government, incorrect information from organizations, and limited interaction between people and organizations. Opportunities and drivers of implementation included problem-solving through disobeying orders, the sacrifice of employees, high levels of inter-organizational cooperation, problem-solving through consultation with higher authorities, and increased interaction between people and organizations. The findings provide insights for policymakers and practitioners on effective implementation of crisis policies at the local level. Limitations & Consequences: One significant limitation of this study is its reliance on the case study method. As a result, it is important to exercise caution when interpreting and generalizing the findings to other fields. Future studies could benefit from exploring alternative research methods to investigate the barriers and possibilities for the successful implementation of policies. Practical Consequences: Effective crisis management necessitates social participation and recognition of the influential role of media, within both organizational and citizen levels. Policymakers and government executives should utilize the potential of public participation and the media to formulate and implement crisis policies, thereby addressing any potential weaknesses in policy formulation through collaboration and empathy. Innovation or value of the Article: This study has developed and explored the implementation of crisis policies in conjunction with the policy formulation stage, while also establishing a practical and contextual comprehension of the implementation process. |
