Course Overview The Governments The desire to improve government performance is not new. Governments have always wanted results from their spending and regulation. What is new is that, increasingly, governments are facing overall spending constraints. With less money to spend, more attention must be given to achieving better results from existing funds. At the same time new ideas have emerged about how to reorganise and better motivate public servants to achieve results. Governments around the world have increasingly come to realise the value of setting goals, measuring performance and using the resulting data as a core management tool to improve societal outcomes. This management approach is often referred to as “performance management” or “managing for results.” Experience has shown that, when well used, goals and measurement can greatly improve the operation and understanding of government programs and priorities. Experience has also shown that misuse of goals and measures, especially when combined with incentives, can provoke dysfunctional, performance-dampening responses. Why Bother To Measure Performance? In an era of accelerated change no organisation can survive without increasing its own pace of decision-making. Hence an increased emphasis on realistic planning is being recognised, and some governments like USA have mandated such emphasis in legislations such as the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA). It requires governmental agencies to develop strategic goals and performance plans that evaluate the success of the strategic plan. The intent is to make governmental agencies more accountable for results to their ultimate customer - the nation. It is sometimes stated that as a consequence to Government Performance Management (GPM), budgets will be determined based on performance. However, this is an over simplified privatesector language. Actually, budgets for many government agencies will always be provided to a large extent based on the necessity of the agencies’ missions, irrespective of their performance. For example, if the police force in a city has poor performance, will the budget for that force be cut? That is unlikely; probably the opposite will occur as more funds are made available for hiring, training, etc. The government agency’s right to exist remains intact because of its validity on a political level. However, there is an important role for GPM, whether or not based on strategic needs, it steers focus on the effectiveness and efficiency of the agency’s authorised work. With each agency has its assigned mission, the metric for success of that mission will be unique to the agency. Success is thus defined specifically to the agency’s charter. “Performance” in this context means, “How well is the agency doing its mission?” Metrics of performance answer the question “How do you know how well the agency is doing?” and this answer may take the form of a Balanced Scorecard on the mission-oriented workforce.

Course Timings Registration will be at 07:30 on Day One. The course will commence at 08:00 and conclude at 14:30 with lunch. There will be refreshment breaks at approximately 10:30 and 12:30. The Future Is your agency’s performance where it needs to be for the next four years? Do you have the competencies necessary for leading the public sector in 2014, 2020 and 2030? Preparing government leaders for the future based on performance and results is gaining momentum around the world. While everyone knows what the current “as is” state of government is, vigorous changes in the political, economical, demographic, environmental, technological as well as legal state of affairs, have compelled government leaders to plan a radical shift in the “to be” state. Mounting demands on public expenditure and call for higher quality services have created more urgency for enhancing public sector performance. To address these challenges, various governments have sought adopting a range of new levers and approaches to management, budgeting, personnel and institutional structures. And to successfully meet such looming challenges, government managers require skills in strategic leadership, predictive analytics and solid forecasting to develop insightful analysis of future trends and demands. The People The people element of government takes into consideration several groups of stakeholders. The interaction amongst government employees, senior executives in government, and the public is very dynamic yet sometimes challenging. The key to performance excellence is forging a relationship and a foundation that carefully examines and addresses the needs and then continuously engages all these various stakeholders. On the other hand, the struggle to better perform, innovate faster and adopt lean principles has demanded more and more from individual contributors. In such an environment, it is essential that individuals assess their own personal competency level within their field and their fields of future interest. Not only should individual contributors identify their areas of weakness, but also they should come to realise what areas of strengths need further enhancement to fast track their career. Government managers in charge of effectively and efficiently executing the primary objectives of government programmes want to ensure that programmes are doing well. The need to be forward looking and proactive to certain challenges and trends is making the role of such leaders even more robust. Strategic visioning, gap assessment, innovation, and governance structures and regulations are absolutely critical to lead personal as well as government performance.

Course Methodology The course will use a number of methods to ensure effective learning including large and small group exercises, lectures, real-tolife case studies and open discussions.
