BOOK EXCERPT:
After working for nearly three years to improve the performance of the government of Flint, Michigan—and discovering that there was no comprehensive work on the subject of local-government management to refer to—Brian Rapp and Frank M. Patitucci felt a personal as well as a professional need to write a book that would help them understand their successes and failures, and that would help others do a better job in similar situations. The result, this book, is unique both in its approach and in its presentation. The authors, establishing a conceptual framework within which to understand their subject, use Flint as a case city to examine the practical impact of factors affecting city government, and they indicate the major standards and criteria that should be applied in evaluating that impact. Although they recognize that within each city there are unique conditions that make a blanket prescription impossible, the authors are nevertheless convinced that many individuals both in and out of government can do something to improve the performance of their city government, and they have set out to help these individuals understand, in the most concrete terms possible, how they might go about it.

BOOK EXCERPT:
With citizens demanding more of public services and employees desiring more self-fulfillment, far-reaching changes must be made in municipal administrations. An increasing number of cities in Germany and abroad are experimenting with new concepts of management and organization to reform their administrations and convert them into modern public service companies. In order to compile various experiences with reform made at an international level, as well as to explore and document innovative examples worldwide, the Bertelsmann Foundation has founded the international network "Cities of Tomorrow." This book presents initial results of the project, analyzed by practical experts in the field. It provides insight into the following areas of "new public management:" changes in organization and methods, quality management, human resource management, information technology, citizen involvement, strategic planning, alternative services, and competition.
