Americans today recognize and celebrate leadership genius in the management of private companies. At the same time, the American public remains deeply skeptical of government's ability to address real economic and social challenges. The contributors to this timely and important volume increase our understanding of the potential incentives for and barriers to creative problem-solving in the public sector. Drawing on case studies of state and local government, as well as theoretical literature on private sector management, these scholars reveal both the problems and the possibilities in governmental decision-making.
Michael Harris is associate provost and professor of political science, specializing in public policy and public administration, at Eastern Michigan University. Rhonda Kinney is associate professor of political science, and department head, at Eastern Michigan University.
