[IPAC-List] OFCCP Issued a Sex Discrimination Rule

[Dennis Doverspike]

I thought some of you out there might be interested in this study
announcement I received. A non-US study, but I thought interesting none the
less.

Dear All,



In case it is of interest, please see attached link to new IDB publication
on public management



*“Merit-based Selection of Public Managers: Better Public Sector
Performance? An Exploratory Study”*

https://publications.iadb.org/handle/11319/7666



*Abstract:*

This qualitative study explores the degree to which the merit-based
selection of public managers leads to better public sector performance.
Based on the findings from eight case studies in Chile and Peru, the
introduction of the merit-based selection of public managers would have
engendered a series of improvements in the internal management and
practices of organizations─ more so than in institutional outcomes. Other
intangible and perceived benefits include the manager’s higher level of
legitimacy in, as well as a stronger commitment to, the institution. The
study also proposes a future agenda for research.



Comments and ideas very welcomed.



Best regards
