Stories of government management failures often make the headlines,
but quietly much gets done as well. What makes the difference? Ira
Goldstein offers wisdom about how to lead and succeed in the
federal realm, even during periods when the political climate is
intensely negative, based on his decades of experience as a senior
executive at two major government consulting firms and as a member
of the US federal government's Senior Executive Service. The
Federal Management Playbook coaches the importance of always
keeping four key concepts in mind when planning for success: goals,
stakeholders, resources, and time frames. Its chapters address how
to effectively motivate government employees, pick the right
technologies, communicate and negotiate with powerful stakeholders,
manage risks, get value from contractors, foster innovation, and
more. Goldstein makes lessons easy to apply by breaking each
chapter's plans into three strategic phases: create an offensive
strategy, execute your plan effectively, and play a smart defense.
Additional tips describe how career civil servants and political
appointees can get the most from one another, advise consultants on
providing value to government, and help everyone better manage
ever-present oversight. The Federal Management Playbook is a
must-read for anyone working in the government realm and for
students who aspire to public service.
