REINVENTING GOVERNMENT: HOW THE ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT IS TRANSFORMING THE PUBLIC SECTOR

REINVENTING GOVERNMENT: HOW THE ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT IS TRANSFORMING THE PUBLIC SECTOR

Nov/Dez. 1993 | DAVID OSBORNE E TED GAEBLER
The book "Reinventing Government" by David Osborne and Ted Gaebler explores how the entrepreneurial spirit is transforming the public sector. It argues that the traditional bureaucratic model, while effective in the past, is no longer suitable for today's complex and competitive environment. The authors propose a new approach to public administration, emphasizing efficiency, innovation, and responsiveness to the needs of citizens. They introduce the concept of "entrepreneurial government," which involves using resources creatively to achieve high productivity and results. The book outlines ten principles for an entrepreneurial government, including being a catalyst, community-oriented, competitive, mission-focused, result-oriented, citizen-focused, proactive, decentralized, market-driven, and innovative. These principles are illustrated through examples from American cities. The authors also discuss the need for better governance, not just more or less government. They argue that the current model of government is inefficient and that a new approach is necessary to meet the demands of a changing society. The book is widely read and discussed in the United States, and its ideas have influenced public policy, including President Clinton's "National Performance Review." The authors also note that the success of the entrepreneurial government model in the United States is partly due to its highly organized society and professionalized bureaucracy. The book is part of a series on Japanese economic development, which examines the influence of the Japanese model on other countries.The book "Reinventing Government" by David Osborne and Ted Gaebler explores how the entrepreneurial spirit is transforming the public sector.
