Management excellence lies at the heart of serving the
public well. Are we delivering anticipated outcomes? Are we efficient
and effective in how we manage our programs? How do we know? Can the
public review our progress? The President has challenged all agencies to
deliver better value for the American people. The President's Management
Agenda creates a five-pronged framework for this effort focused on
strategic management of human capital, budget and performance
integration, improved financial performance, expanding electronic
government, and competitive sourcing.
Four key principles guide the Secretary's implementation of the President's Management Agenda: citizen value, accountability, integration, and modernization.
- Citizen
value is our central management goal-Do our activities link directly to
our mission of protecting resources, providing recreational
opportunities, ensuring access to energy and minerals on public lands,
and serving communities through science, safety, and fulfillment of our
special responsibilities to Native Americans, Alaskan natives, and the
Nation's affiliated islands?
- By
striving for accountability, we aim to accurately and consistently
measure and communicate what we do so the public can evaluate our
performance.
- Through
integration, we look at the big picture and look for ways to work better
together to provide better service to the public.
- Modernization
enables us to work smarter by taking advantage of technological progress
and advances in management practices that increase efficiency and
effectiveness. For more information on how Interior is implementing the
