Institutions, incentives and public sector performance:                     18 January 2008

A symposium examining the motivations driving public service performance, its measurement and issues in devising public sector incentive schemes.

 

Private sector contributions to public sector performance

A series of meetings exploring the incentives and impediments facing private contributions to improved public sector performance. The effects of `disclosure' on government and corporate behaviour, the `architecture' of corruption and the management of `incomplete'contracts' were amongst the topics discussed.

 

`Adding public value' seminar series

This series explored the proposition that corporations exploiting natural  resources might have increasing interest in promoting host countries' governance and public sector competencies.

   

`Re-thinking approaches to government reforms' seminar series

This series considered the impact of 'New Public Management' reforms outside of the traditional 'leader' countries in Europe and Australasia.
