The change that new ministers experience upon entering government
is immediate, one that is occasionally unexpected or for which they
are unprepared, and it requires a radical transformation in their
workload, in their responsibilities, and in the nature of their
interaction with others. It is, in short, an uncompromising and
sudden jolt to their lives. In an age when mankind's impact on the
lives of others and on the environment is infinitely extended and
enhanced, it is imperative that the preparation of ministers is
addressed-and this book, for the first time, aims to shine a light
on the measures needed to bring the ministerial mind-set in line
with the modern global economy and society. At the heart of this
book lies the intention to increase ministerial capacity,
responsibility, and judgment, through formal processes of training
that will enable ministers to claim a greater grasp on the subject
of their department and the techniques necessary to implement this
knowledge. But more than this, it conveys the range of factors that
require careful consideration when addressing the immensely
important, but hitherto neglected, concept of the ministerial
mind-set. It can be seen that what it encompasses strays onto such
a variety of subjects and disciplines, that only through judgment
and conscientiousness can ministers achieve the potential to which
their position elevates them. In its conclusion, it is argued that
the radical assembling of ministers across the world, under the
auspices of the international community, is a necessary next step
in achieving a step-change in the global approach to ministerial
responsibility. By bringing together the ministers of the present,
to share in the variety and unity of the work they undertake, it
will be possible to create a readily identifiable body to support
these and future ministers and to enhance the understanding of
their role to which they have been assigned.
