Low-performance government provides too little service for too much
money. Breakdown is a serious risk. This is the stark message of
the Volcker Commission report, which leads off High-Performance
Government with a devastating nonpartisan indictment of public
service in America. The commission recommends restructuring
government by mission, selecting and developing better leaders, and
creating agile, performance-driven public service. The rest of
High-Performance Government explores the possibilities and
limitations of these recommendations, with practical guidance based
on years of research at the RAND Corporation. Chapters address
headline issues ranging from reorganizing our national security
system to creating performance-driven schools, from foreign aid to
welfare reform, from public-private partnerships to the 'deep
uncertainties' of problems such as terrorism.
