Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We study the use of performance measurement systems in the public sector. We hypothesize that the way in which these systems are being used affects organizational performance, and that these performance effects depend on contractibility. Contractibility encompasses clarity of goals, the ability to select undistorted performance metrics, and the degree to which managers know and control the transformation process. We expect that public sector organizations that use their performance measurement systems in ways that match the characteristics of their activities outperform those that fail to achieve such fit. We test our hypotheses using survey data from 101 public sector organizations. Our findings indicate that contractibility moderates the relationship between the incentive-oriented use of the performance measurement system and performance. Using the performance measurement system for incentive purposes negatively influences organizational performance, but this effect is less severe when contractibility is high. We also find that an exploratory use of the performance measurement system tends to enhance performance; this positive effect is independent of the level of contractibility. The effectiveness of the introduction of performance measurement systems in public sector organizations thus depends both on contractibility and on how the system is being used by managers. These findings have important implications, both for practice and for public policy.

This book was released on 2023 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zusammenfassung: This book provides an in-depth analysis of current development concerning ICTs with reference to vocational education and training. It presents the best and innovative ICT-based solutions implemented in education and explores controversial topics such as challenges and opportunities. Information and communication technologies (ICTs) have dramatically changed the way we learn and work. They have created new opportunities along with new challenges, putting profound and urgent implications on vocational education and training (VET). Nowadays, we must think broadly and make the right choices about VET using innovation and digitalization to boost the quality of vocational education and training, enable the upskilling and reskilling of adults, and enhance the employability of learners. The potential and the impact of ICTs in vocational education and training have yet to be fully exploited, leading to an emerging direction of research. This book helps readers to understand the idea of business education and education governance in a digital age. It is of interest to practitioners, administrators, researchers, teachers, teacher educators and students.
Download or read book Public Sector Reform written by and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effectiveness and efficiency of a country's public sector is vital to the success of development activities, including those the World Bank supports. Sound financial management, an efficient civil service and administrative policy, efficient and fair collection of taxes, and transparent operations that are relatively free of corruption all contribute to good delivery of public services. The Bank has devoted an increasing share of its lending and advisory support to the reform of central governments, so it is important to understand what is working, what needs improvement, and what is missing. IEG has examined lending and other kinds of Bank support in 1999-2006 for public sector reform in four areas: public financial management, administrative and civil service, revenue administration, and anticorruption and transparency. Although a majority of countries that borrowed to support public sector reform experienced improved performance in some dimensions, there were shortcomings in important areas and in overall coordination. . The frequency of improvement was higher among IBRD borrowers than among IDA borrowers. . Performance usually improved for public financial management, tax administration, and transparency, but did not usually with respect to civil service.
Book Synopsis An Investigation of the Performance Measurement System and the Employees’ Performance Appraisal by :
Download or read book An Investigation of the Performance Measurement System and the Employees’ Performance Appraisal written by and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organizations in the public sector have adapted their performance measurement and appraisal systems in line with calls in New Public Management literature (NPM). In the United Arab Emirates (UAE), public organizations have embraced the NPM initiatives in many aspects and to different degrees. The focus of this study is the Abu Dhabi Police (ADP), which is a local public organization in the Abu Dhabi Emirate. ADP has multi-dimensional operations with a significant number of indicators to be addressed. ADP imposes the implementation of Balanced Scorecard (BSC) against all its units’ operation to measure their capabilities against Abu Dhabi’s fast-growing population and to evaluate the quality of their operations. ADP is considered to be one of the major participants in the Abu Dhabi Excellence Awards as they encourage the implementation of different NPM initiatives. ADP always works on continual improvements in services provided and is keen to enhance such improvements at the organizational, operational, and individual levels.However, commentators recommend that public organizations are urged to investigate the validity of performance measurement and appraisal systems and the level of alignment among the key performance indicators at various levels (i.e., strategic, operational, and individual). In the case of ADP, it incorporated several procedural changes, including promotion policy, rewards, and qualification requirements. These changes were implemented in late 2012.However, following the implementation of these changes, two critical incidents have propagated and attracted ADP’s management attention, mainly: a) an alarming increase in levels of staff dissatisfaction; and b) the high volume of staff appeals against annual performance appraisal. This was particularly evident within technical departments. These two incidents were critical to the Forensic Evidence Department (FED) due to the technical difficulties involved in the replacement of technical staff who chose to resign.The above formed the empirical justification in support of the current study’s primary objectives. This study investigates the validity of the current performance measurement and performance appraisal systems at ADP-FED, UAE. The main objectives of this study are a) investigate the level of alignment between ADP’s strategic priorities and its performance measurement system (PMS) at various levels(i.e., organizational/departmental/individual), and b) examine the coherence of competencies associated with technical jobs at the FED within ADP with the performance appraisal (PA) system. This study adopts a case study approach. Furthermore, this study builds on the pragmatic constructivism approach (PC) (L. Nørreklit, H. Nørreklit, & P. Israelsen,2006) and the behavioral event interview approach (BEI) (Spencer, 1993). A total number of 28 semi-structured interviews were conducted. A rating survey was also used, in which data were collected in 2017 from 183 staff at ADP-FED.Main findings of the first phase of the study (i.e., PC approach) show that ADP needs to adopt an actor-based approach in order to align its employees’ perceptions into its PMS. Findings show a poor awareness among employees with regard to the strategic KPIs.Moreover, findings show that BSC is partially implemented and that its deployment (i.e., type I) lacks critical elements, such as incentive programs. The current PA system is criticized in terms of impracticality in evaluating the technical individuals’ performances. In addition, the study identifies twenty competencies for the technical jobs of the ADP-FED, which is considered to be a significant contribution to this study.Findings of this study contribute to knowledge and practice. First, findings contribute to knowledge by responding to the recent calls to support the scarcity of research in terms of evaluating the validity of PMS in the public sector. Moreover, this study contributes in that it examines the level of alignment within PMS’s of public organizations in emerging economies. The current study fills a gap and fulfills the scarcity of literature in the UAE context with regard to investigating the validity of the implementation of NPM and its tools. The study also contributes to the literature on the PC approach, which helps in highlighting the complexity of implementing performance measurement in public organizations by analyzing employees’ facts, possibilities, values, and communications dimensions. Second, the study’s findings have practical implications. For example, ADP should consider working into integrating officers’ factual possibilities more effectively. In addition, ADP will benefit from restructuring its PMS around its employees’ perceptions. In terms of incentives, ADP could adopt the Ministry of Interior’s (MOI) incentives program for annual performance. The study also suggests that ADP-HR Department could study incorporating the identified competencies into ADP-FED’s into the PA system.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 80's the introduction of New Public Management principles has promoted the use of performance measurement to drive a more efficient, effective and accountable public sector. The adoption of a sophisticated and comprehensive multidimensional performance measurement system, which looks beyond traditional financial measures, based on organization strategies, such as the balanced scorecard, has thus been suggested. This revolution in the public management came together with the devolution processes that involved most European public health systems. Set within this context, in the last decade, each of the twenty Italian regions developed its own management tools. Among others, the Tuscan performance evaluation system (PES) has been valued as a particularly innovative and comprehensive system. This paper reports the novel experience of the Tuscan PES; in particular, it measures PES effectiveness and discusses the critical factors that could have led to the PES success. Five are the critical success factors identified by researchers: the visual reporting system, the linkage between PES and CEO's reward system, the public disclosure of data, the high level of employees and managers involvement into the entire process and the strong political commitment. All those factors run together to achieve better results; however, the process of development of the system plays a pivotal role. Scholars suggest the use of a constructive approach in order to gain effective changes in human organization. According to this stream of literature, this paper contributes by the novel experience of the Tuscan PES in addressing as a further fruitful application of the constructivist approach in healthcare.
