MODERN HYBRID MODELS OF GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATION MANAGEMENT IN THE CONTEXT OF UKRAINE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

Abstract

This work presents a comprehensive analysis of modern approaches to public administration in the context of digital transformation. Key challenges faced by Ukraine governmental structures are examined, including insufficient financial autonomy, weak institutional frameworks, and a lack of qualified personnel, particularly in small communities. The work emphasizes the importance of adapting traditional management models to successfully leverage modern technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, and blockchain. Existing hybrid management models, which combine elements of classical bureaucratic approaches with modern digital tools, are highlighted and analyzed. In particular, the focus is on the e-Government model, aimed at simplifying citizens' access to public services, reducing bureaucratic processes, and increasing transparency. International examples of successful digital solutions, especially from Estonia and Singapore, are highlighted to offer specific recommendations for adapting these models to Ukrainian realities. However, risks such as digital inequality, integration complexity, and cost are noted. The research results demonstrate that digital transformation requires profound changes in management approaches, particularly through the implementation of flexible, decentralized models and data integration platforms, utilizing e-Government, Smart Governance, SOA, and Cloud-First models, which accelerate the adaptation of governmental organizations to change and improve the quality of service delivery. Each proposed model has its advantages and limitations, which leads the author to recommend a combined approach to their application for maximum efficiency. In conclusion, the successful digitalization of public administration in Ukraine requires a comprehensive approach, including infrastructure modernization, staff skill development, integration of best international practices, and the involvement of vendors with effective digital solutions. The implementation of modern hybrid management models can become a key tool in overcoming existing barriers and advancing Ukraine toward more efficient and flexible public administration.
