Book description
Since it was first published more than twenty years ago,
The Effective Public Manager
has become the classic resource for public administrators and students.
The fourth edition of groundbreaking work synthesizes the current
thinking in the field and presents practical lessons and tools in a
highly accessible format. Focused on helping real-world managers and
managers-to-be meet the demands of their jobs head-on rather than
working around the constraints of government, this book offers a fresh
approach to implementing effective management tools in a dynamic
political, organizational, economic, and technological context.
