Workshop on Improving Public Service Delivery
Details
Program overview:
Improving public services means changing the ways that public services deliver services to citizens. This means first defining responsibilities of government ministries, departments or agencies, then ensuring that ministries, departments, agencies and staff have enough funds, people, equipment and other resources to carry out these responsibilities. Clearly, public service reform can include almost anything that could affect the effectiveness – doing the right things – and efficiency – doing things in the right way – of public service delivery. Setting priorities for improvement contains a guide for conducting self-assessment and performance management for improving public services
For whom:
Chief executives, permanent secretaries, departmental heads and other senior executive officers who lead the delivery of services to a wide range of public users in ministries, departments, agencies, and Local Government Councils.
