Testing a Multi-Dimensional Model of Organizational Performance
Scholars have been preoccupied for generations with identifying the “best measure” and model of organizational performance. Drawing on previous work focused on the development of multi-dimensional frameworks or models of organizational performance, this article presents our perspective on organizational performance, discussing a multi-dimensional model that emphasizes the importance of assessing the two primary dimensions of performance, manageme…
Measuring Power and Presence
This article introduces a new measure of bureaucratic representation that provides a more complete view of a demographic group‘s potential to be effectively represented by its members in a bureaucracy. It does so by combining information about a group’s overall presence in the bureaucracy (penetration) with information that reflects its distribution over the hierarchy (stratification). Specifically, we focus on how groups are distributed in the r…
Work Motivation in the Senior Executive Service
Some scholars believe that more effort should be devoted to the development of a comprehensive theory of work motivation. Several candidate theories have been advanced in recent years, but they are radically different and empirical testing is almost nonexistent. This article reports the first known effort to test one of these metatheories-the high performance cycle proposed by Edwin A. Locke and Gary P. Latham. Specifically, we asses the empirica…
Measuring Government Management Capacity
This article fills a gap in both the public management and human resources literatures by applying a conceptual model supported by a criteria-based evaluative framework to assess and compare the nature and capacity of city government human resources management systems. Various management reforms have swept through many American governments recently, but practitioners and researchers have not reflected carefully on how these reforms contribute to …
Why Elephants Gallop
Hal G. Rainey and Paula Steinbauer (1999) recently proposed a theory of effective government organizations.1 Several other theories exist in whole or in part, but empirical testing is rare. In this article we cut to the chase and examine several key elements of these theories empirically. First, we explore the theoretical dimensions of organizational performance and derive a taxonomy to help measure the construct. Second, we draw from the literat…
Whistle Blowers in the Federal Civil Service
There is a strong undercurrent in the literature of public administration that suggests the existence—and importance—of service-related motives linked to the public interest. Publicservice motivation (PSM) is a fledgling theory that predicts that many individuals predisposed to public norms and emotions act in the public interest, even when doing so runs counter to their selfinterest. This study represents the first attempt to link public service…
