Features: This book takes the transformation of government management models as its main thread. Based on a critique of the dilemmas of traditional administrative efficiency, it analyzes the development patterns and successful experiences of government performance management in contemporary Western countries, exploring the trajectory of the "performance approach" replacing the "efficiency approach." From this, it outlines the intrinsic institutional foundations, strategic frameworks, and methods for implementing government performance management. This book will help inspire in-depth research on government performance management among experts and scholars in the field of public administration, and also promote practical explorations by government departments and civil servants to continuously improve government performance and enhance government management levels. Government performance is a widely concerned issue in contemporary government management. As a practical management tool for improving and evaluating government performance, performance management has attracted universal attention from governments worldwide and has begun to be gradually introduced into the practice of government management in China. However, performance issues are also one of the difficulties in government management practice, often leaving civil servants in government departments feeling helpless. This book argues that there is an inevitable connection between government performance and the foundational principles established by the government management model, and that this connection is a significant factor influencing and hindering the improvement and measurement of government performance.
