About this book
Managing for results is increasingly important for the success of public organizations. Performance and Innovation in the Public Sector is a comprehensive textbook that examines a broad range of performance strategies.
Today's public managers require a broad toolkit and a deep, current understanding of the following: performance management, digital government, collaboration, strategic planning, innovation, lean government, and managing people for performance. This book provides a thorough overview of broad paradigms and their emergence, practical strategies along with examples and up-to-date applications, and an appreciation for the diverse contexts of public organizations resulting in varied and tailored improvements. Each chapter assists students in applying each tool at work. Performance and Innovation in the Public Sector provides a balance of scholarship and practice, offers flexibility for instructors, and is written in an accessible style that students and professionals appreciate.
