Publisher's Synopsis
This book is designed to stimulate independent, constructive thinking on the important issues in contemporary public management. This task is accomplished with carefully constructed scenarios that rigorously challenge readers' analytical and decision-making skills on a number of real world issues. Some scenarios set the parameters of a situation and then require the reader to complete the scenario in the role of key actor. Other scenarios invite evaluation of the behavior of the key actor with whom the reader is asked to identify.
