Finishing up Lynn Kahn’s Performance Networks: Transforming Governance for the 21st Century. It’s a quick read that explains the benefits of using performance networks or cross-agency networks to work on common issues such a juvenile rehabilitation or environmental issues. Her “Ten Views of Government Performance Networks” sounds more like effective project management. Basically, have a good vision, communicate the vision effectively, and have performance measures. Nothing wrong with that but it does point out how government needs modern project management.
