Description
Getting Results is an integrated compilation of practical advice on how career and appointed leaders and managers can better manage for results, and how Congress, the media and the public can support and critique performance. The advice is non-political and non-partisan, reflecting the time-tested judgments of a broad cross section of experienced government leaders.
Essays include the personal views of senior leaders on strategic approaches to achieving results, critical human capital management issues, using IT, leading organizational change, working with state and local governments and with contractors, communicating results to congress, the media, and the public, linking performance and budgeting, evaluating results, and working on results with IGs, GAO, and OMB.
