The Government Manager's Guide to Strategic Planning

Strategic planning deals with long-term goals and objectives. Performance management focusing on the performance of an organization, department, process, or employee—is what makes strategic planning work. Neither can be done without the other, but both must be adapted to the organization. This volume is designed as a reference for those involved in the day to-day challenge of performance management and measurement. Government managers will find ideas and practices that can be applied effectively in the federal environment.
