Summary

This book contends that the civil service system, which was devised to create a uniform process for recruiting high-quality workers to government, is no longer uniform or a system. The authors, the nation's leading experts on government management, describe what the government of the future will look like, what it will need to work well, and how in particular the nation can build the next generation of workers required to lead it.
