Publisher's Synopsis

"Public Sector Management in Australia" is a text dealing with the contemporary issues facing the public sector manager/administrator. The changes that are taking place under anew managerialist ethos, their impact and consequence are a major theme of this text.;The authors have written an integrated text in order to provide a more accurate assessment of current political and administrateive management practices. The book is grounded on empirical research, and this quantitative material is woven into the descriptive text in an accessible style.;The problems faced by public sector managers raise questions about the design and structure of governmental bodies. Managers have resorted to a range of new tools of management but far less attention has been given to review and evaluation. Just as neglected have been the knotty problems of public sector ethics and accountability, given a new urgency with current changes in management orientation.
