GovExec Daily: Reflections on 30 Years of Government Reform
John Kamensky and Daniel J. Chenok join the podcast to discuss a new white paper on reform efforts.
There is often an idea that a new administration means a clean slate upon its beginning, but so much involved in public service reform is that which builds off what came before. In a recently released report from the IBM Center for The Business of Government, our guests today lay out the different reform initiatives over the past 30 years. The report focuses on how government works to get things done and the leaders over that time who have and continue to implement missions.
John Kamensky is a Senior Fellow with the IBM Center for The Business of Government. Prior to joining the IBM Center, he served for eight years as deputy director of Vice President Gore's National Partnership for Reinventing Government. Daniel J. Chenok is executive director of the IBM Center for The Business of Government. They joined the show to discuss their report for the IBM Center for the Business of Government and their post on our site on how the past can color the future of reform.
