Order Description
For this Discussion, review this week’s resources. Note how international institutions are defined. Also, note how the different kinds of institutions have been distinguished from one another. Select one of these organizational types and consider how that organization may differ from traditional domestic public organizations. Finally, think about your previous coursework relating to public organizations.
Post by Day 3 an explanation of whom your selected type of organization serves as its primary stakeholders. In your explanation, address whether the kinds of accountability you see in traditional domestic public organizations seem likely to work in your chosen type of organization and explain why. Explain to what degree networked organizations provide particular challenges to efforts at ensuring accountability to stakeholders. Also, explain the management challenges that may arise for international organizations. Be specific and provide examples.
