Performance Management in Government in the Public Sector
3 days|Delivered on request
Performance Management in Government in the Public Sector takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including grant management, intergovernmental relations and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because officials are held personally accountable under legislation many have never been trained on, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with municipal budgeting, records management and irregular expenditure in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put municipal budgeting on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against the Municipal Systems Act
