Description
The secrets of successful government from one of the world's leading experts.
Billions of citizens around the world are frustrated with their governments. Political leaders struggle to honour their promises, and officials find it near impossible to translate ideas into action. The result? High taxes, but poor outcomes, leading to cynicism not just with government but with the political process.
Why is this? How can this be reversed?
In this ground-breaking book, How to Run A Government, Michael Barber draws on his wealth of experience from working for and with government leaders worldwide to present a blueprint for how to run a government. Using contemporary cases from every continent and classic examples from history, he makes a compelling case for a new approach. From Downing Street to Punjab, Charles I to Churchill, this book shows that the solution is less about ideology and more about clear priorities and meticulous planning.
