,Lecture 1, Introduction into leisure direction: what and why?
A changing world of leisure:
Globalization within business world: business becomes more global.
(as a result) There are a lot of networks created and (digital) information streams.
Growing importance of leisure in western and non-western society = BRIC-countries:
Brazil, Russia, India, China and south-Africa; in terms of turnover and employment a
big middle class gets more and more leisure time but also money and more time to spend
their leisure times.
Leisure is spreading out from the traditional countries to sort of a worldwide thing.
You don’t do leisure just only for leisure sake, you could also use leisure for other things
to achieve societal purposes.
Cross-sectorial cooperation’s between leisure sector and other sectors such as health and
education.
The relevance of leisure direction: we need people who:
Have a helicopter view over the leisure sector: maybe use parts of the leisure sector who
you normally wouldn’t combine.
Someone who can bring different parties together: leisure directors can have a role in that
because of their very good communication skills
Can lead a process of (strategic) cooperation.
Link with other competencies:
The leisure direction process happens before for example creating a project plan which is project
management.

,Lecture 3, Leisure direction and the public sector.
Stakeholder definition: a stakeholder = a persons or organization who affects or can be affected
by a specific organization, a government decision, or a new product or project.
Stakeholder classification:
1. Internal stakeholders vs. external stakeholders
= =
Within the organization - suppliers
- Employees - society
- Manager - government
- Owner - creditors
- Media
- Clients
2. Interface stakeholders = can influence organizations by laws and regulations or specific
directions we need to follow.
3. Primary stakeholders vs. secondary stakeholders
=
The ones who exercise the main influence.
4. Public, private (commercial) and non-governmental (voluntary) stakeholders.
From birth to death, our lives are affected in countless ways by the activities of the government.
so the public sector really marks our developments: on the way we work personally and on the
way we work in society.
The public sector = a grouping of organizations which comprise a range of government and
government based organizations. The unifying focus is to deliver government policy and they
have power to make decisions of strategic importance.
What is the public sector: a wide range of government and government based organizations at
various levels:
Local (Breda, Manchester)
Regional (province or districts)
National (Dutch, Indonesian)
Super national (EU)
The public sector – the part of business activity that is organized and controlled by the
government or its agencies on behalf of the nation as a whole.
The public sector – can make use of outsiders’ rational arguments and has to find balance
between the interest of various stakeholders and the long term affects.

, The relevance of the public sector – functions:
1. Coordination: bring together private sector governmental organizations and voluntary
organizations.
2. Planning: provision for different types of leisure, infrastructure e.g. roads.
3. Legislation and regulation: government who produces the laws e.g. gambling, drinking.
4. To stimulate the sectors: the government is there to protect the interest of all. It provides
incentives for social objectives and employment.
5. Marketing and promotion: raise public awareness for healthy living.
6. Intervention: intervention by market failure.
7. To protect public interests: e.g. balance long (accessibility) and short term (profit)
interests.
Public sector and leisure:
Public sector bodies with an interest in leisure are linked together in a complex set of
relationships with their principal objective to work towards improvement of the public good.
Reasons behind the involvement of the public sector in leisure: providing access to all.
Public policy: the decision making towards a strategically wanted desired direction:
Frequently used to denote the direction and objectives an organization wishes to pursue
over a set period of time (gives us objectives direction and a clear timeline).
The public policy is a function of 3 interrelated issues:
1. The intensions of political and other key actors: the policy should take into account all the
interest of all the policy makers who are behind different parties.
2. The way in which decision and non-decision are made: sometimes the public sector has to
act but sometimes withdraw from acting.
3. The implications of these decisions (the consequences)
Types of public policies and leisure:
Distributive policies (likely to benefit all the population) – beneficial for all.
Redistributive policies – focus on one particular group or section of the population.
Constituent policies – procedures to be followed within society.
Regulative policies: management of the behavior of the population.
Public sector and local authorities:
Public sector organizations are owned by local authorities and trade on a profit loss basis.
Characteristics:
Owned by local authorities.
Open to all.
Run as business operations – aim to break even.
Trade on set prices according to pre-set budgets.
Facilities are adequate or improving.
