Presentation Transcript

  1. How do public managers perceive (and deal with) media attention for supervisory organizations? • Professor Mark van Twist • 14th EPSO Conference Utrecht • (October 12th 2012)

  2. Outline • Theoretical perspectives on the relation between media and governance processes • Practical positions on the relation between media and governance processes • Data gathered from the EPSO members on the relation between media and supervisory organizations • Four paradoxes relevant to understanding the relation between media and supervisory organizations

  3. Three perspectives on the influence of media

  4. Mediatization perspective • Informational biases in the media (Bennett, 2009): • Personalization • Dramatization • Fragmentation • Athority disorder bias • Media logic ‘invading’ and ‘colonizing’ other domains

  5. Three positions in practice on influence of media

  6. Discussion: four paradoxes • First paradox: good supervision is invisible in the media, exactly because the supervision is successful. • Second paradox: when supervision becomes visible, it is usually framed as ‘failing’ in the blame game. • Third paradox: not only critical reports make supervision vulnerable, supportive reports do so even more. • Fourth paradox: the essence of supervision is making sure everything is allright by exposing what is wrong.
