| Abstract | Government reform can be little more than politically symbolic restructuring, or it can involve changes which are pervasive and permanent. During the last twenty five years a number of countries have undertaken real and significant reform in their public sectors. Many of these reform programs have entailed the introduction of competition, the measurement of results, the decentralisation of authority, and the introduction of meaningful sanctions for managers who fail to achieve their objectives. The decision to embrace this new approach, and the process of introducing the requisite changes, has often been referred to as reinvention. This paper discusses discusses some of those changes and evaluates the different approaches taken . The evidence suggests that cultural change in the public sector is not a finite phase which agencies must endure, but is instead a permanent fixture for agencies. If this is true, then the future of the reinvention movement seems assured. |
