Summary 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.Contents: An Introduction to Strategic Planning Determining Public Valu.
