  • Responding to the Decline in Public Service Professionalism

    Frank P SherwoodARTICLEPublic Administration Review1997

    Governmental professionalism is declining. There are many more political appointees in bureaucracy, and environment has not been supportive or trusting.

  • The Legacy of John W. Macy, Jr

    Frank P SherwoodARTICLEPublic Administration Review1987

    A truly illustrious member of our public administration family, John W. Macy, Jr., died December 22, 1986. Appropriately, his death was well reported in the press. The consciously skeptical Washington Post even published uncommon, laudatory editorial, declaring him an outstanding role model for career civil servants. It described his legacy as the continuing quest for quality to sustain the American government as a human institution in which all …

  • Executive Personnel Systems in the States

    Frank P Sherwood, Lee J BreyerARTICLEPublic Administration Review1987

    In 1963 California became the first state to institute an executive personnel system. The experience in the states since that time has been an evolving one; but the history of this movement has been given relatively little attention. The concept of an executive personnel system gained particular attention in 1955, with the publication of the Second Hoover Commission report recommending administrative reforms in the national government. At that ti…

  • Coaching

    James F Wolf, Frank P SherwoodARTICLEPublic Administration Review1981

    Public managers and executives frequently find themselves in go it alone situations. They are expected to survive by their own wits with little support from superiors or peers; the result is significant role isolation. Support is hard to seek or find. When executives decide to seek help, they may place themselves at risk if the helping person makes judgments about future roles for them. They may be interpreted as admitting that they are not capab…

  • The American Public Executive in the Third Century

    Frank P SherwoodARTICLEPublic Administration Review1976

    To be sure, the idea of the political leader having executive responsibilities for governmental performance is not altogether revolutionary. Presidents have in particular gained notoriety for their ability to make things happen in the nation. But involvement in a foreign policy dispute, a war, a landmark piece of domestic legislation, or a political drama tends more frequently to shape the way in which we remember a President. With the exception …

  • Dealing with Dominance

    Frank P SherwoodARTICLEPublic Administration Review1975

    Though we have spent nearly a quarter of a century giving advice to others in various types of foreign aid programs, it is curious that much of what we have talked about abroad has never had a market at home. Take the general problem of relationships among our nearly 40,000 general purpose governments in the United States. Clearly, we have moved a long way from the days of dual federalism-in which at least the working assumption was that the nati…

    > Probably no major administrative technique has won so wide an interest and acceptance in a short time as has performance budgeting. Its advocates have foreseen such happy consequences as more rational legislative-executive relations, administrative decentralization without loss of responsibility, more sharply drawn alternatives for program selection, and a clearer picture of costs which can spotlight inefficiency and point out cheaper routes to…
