Abstract
During and post a significant crisis that severely impacts society, there are often calls for reflection and analysis about the management of that crisis. However, most crises are not sweeping global pandemics, as was the case with Covid 19, with many countries experiencing significant adverse effects and economic challenges. These adverse effects spilled over to public sector organizations (PSOs) and street level organizations (SLOs) responsible for service delivery to the public. It is important to note that the crisis is not over:
New offshoots of the Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 continue to proliferate worldwide. The virus is mutating extensively and convergently (meaning the same mutations are popping up along different family trees) and, as a result, we now have what is increasingly called a ‘variant soup’ (Potter, 2022).
The ongoing pandemic has resulted in continuing global effects, which are impacting organizations worldwide.
This debate article explains why we think now is a crucial time for Public Money & Management (PMM) to publish a theme issue on the impact of the ‘Trojan Horse’ effect of Covid 19 in decimating resourcing of the public sector workforce.
