Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'managing for results' movement that began in the early 1990s has now reached adolescence and is creating new challenges for government managers. After spending years creating planning and performance-measuring systems, managers and policy makers now need to focus on how to use performance information to make data-driven decisions. Managing Results for 2005 describes--through a series of case studies--the progress being made in federal, state, and local governments in managing for results. Part I increases our understanding about the potential use of performance information in government. It starts with a chapter on how government leaders can overcome obstacles to using performance information. Another chapter presents a comprehensive framework for tying performance to the budget process. The book provides specific examples of how performance information has been used to dramatically improve program outcomes. Part II presents case studies on the use of performance information to improve results in a range of federal agencies, in Texas state government, and in the City of Baltimore. As pioneering efforts, these examples do not all present success stories; nevertheless, the lessons learned will be instructive to public managers as the 'managing for results' movement advances toward maturity.

This book was released on 1998 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Federal agencies' first annual performance plans showed the potential for doing performance planning and measurement as envisioned by the Government Performance and Results Act to provide decisionmakers with valuable perspective and useful information to improve program performance. For example, almost all of the plans showed how agencies' missions and strategic goals related to the performance plans. However, most of the plans that GAO reviewed contained major weaknesses that undermined their usefulness. Specifically, they did not provide a clear picture of the agencies' intended performance, did not relate strategies and resources to performance, and provided limited confidence that agencies' performance data will be sufficiently credible. All of the plans contained valuable information, but their shortcomings caused their usefulness to vary considerably. GAO believes that Congress, the Office of Management and Budget, and the agencies need to build on the first round of annual performance planning by working together and targeting key performance issues that will make future plans more useful.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spring of 1998, federal agencies submitted their first annual performance plans under the Government Performance and Results Act. GAO found that many of these initial performance plans faltered at their central task: developing measurable goals for the results or outcomes that their programs are intended to achieve. A common challenge for many federal agencies is to develop goals for outcomes that are the results of phenomena outside of the government's control. Indeed, many, if not most, federal programs seek to improve complex systems, such as the economy or the environment, or share responsibilities with other agencies for achieving their objectives. As a result, they confront the challenge of setting goals that are both far-reaching and can be realistically affected by the programs. To help agencies identify methods for developing such goals, GAO examined six programs--the Job Training Partnership Act, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the Natural Resource Conservation Service, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Safe Drinking Water Program, and Title I: Education Assistance--as case studies of how agencies were able to develop performance measures for outcome goals that are affected by external factors. GAO discusses the strategies that these six programs used to set outcome goals.
Download or read book Managing for Development Results written by Roberto García López and published by Inter-American Development Bank. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results-based management (RBM) is a public management strategy that involves decision making based on reliable information regarding the effects of governmental actions on society. It has been adopted in various developed countries as a way of improving efficiency and effectiveness in public policy. In Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) countries, governments and public managers show increasing interest in this management strategy. Given the relative novelty of RBM in the region, however, there is scant literature on the subject. This book is intended to fill this gap in two ways. First, it seeks to describe some of the basic RBM concepts and adapt them according to regional characteristics. Second, it presents an assessment, based on studies carried out in 25 countries, of the challenges facing LAC countries and their capacity to implement results-based public management.

Book excerpt: Could there be anything more exciting and blessed assurance in our life than knowing that the creator of the universe loves us? That is what this book "God's love in 3-dimensions" is about, God's love for us, and His designed purpose for our lives; Reflecting back over more than forty years of service in the Body of Christ; I have found the most important things to be taught and expressed, to bring love and unity, and success to the life of the Church, and to our personal lives are, "God's love for us," "Our love for God," and "Our love for one another." For the success and the life of the Church, and for our personal lives, God's love must prevail. "God's Love in 3-dimensions" reiterates the plea of the writings of our Lord's Apostles, and the prayer of our Lord, for love and unity. The apostles of our Lord pleaded for us throughout the scriptures to have love and unity through the Spirit of God's love. Jesus our Lord prayed for God's unity and love for His followers; "that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in Me and I am in You." "I have made You known to them, and will continue to make You known in order that the love You have for Me may be in them and that I Myself may be in them."(John 17:21&26). What great accomplishments and success await us when we walk in unity with our Lord and Heavenly Father. The greatness of God's love, joy and peace fills our hearts, souls and minds, providing divine direction and assurance as we walk in our Lord's Spirit of love. And what great accomplishments have been made by the body of Christ when our Lord's love and unity prevail among His body members, when working together in the directives and spirit of their Lord. What creates and produces unity with the Heavenly Father, within us, and within the body of Christ?
