4.0 out of 5 stars
Slender, readable, more than adequate
A small book on a large subject--But the shorter length makes it more likely to be read. The book has a series of chapters on the expected topics, like dealing with hiring, firing, and the personnel system. It is a worthwhile book, but doesn't have anything startlingly new or original.

This review is from: The New Effective Public Manager: Achieving Success in a Changing Government (Jossey-Bass Public Administration) (Hardcover)
A small book on a large subject--But the shorter length makes it more likely to be read. The book has a series of chapters on the expected topics, like dealing with hiring, firing, and the personnel system. It is a worthwhile book, but doesn't have anything startlingly new or original. Still one of the few books to treat this subject from a practioner's view rather than an academic one. If the subject interests you, I'd suggest reading Haass's "The Power to Persuade" in addition to (not instead of) this book.

It will help managers catch up on their sleep,
By A Customer
This review is from: The New Effective Public Manager: Achieving Success in a Changing Government (Jossey-Bass Public Administration) (Hardcover)
With prose more sleep-inducing than general anesthesia, this tome (at least it feels long) microwaves managerial cliches until you wish to forgo a career in public service. Avoid at all costs.
