The new paradigm requires that public managers be given greater autonomy, better resources, subjected to some degree of competition, and be required to deliver performance in terms of measurable targets with clear notion of accountability. The study discusses issues relating to personnel, financial, procurement and contract management which are critical for the efficient functioning of government organizations and suggests measures to streamline them. The book emphasizes the need for better human resource management and their optimum utilization. The book deals with issues relating to values and corruption and underlines the fact that without ethical conduct on the part of public managers the country cannot progress and realize its full potential. This book develops a new philosophy of governance based on the principle of delegation, sharing of power and mutual trust. There is a need to inspire public managers by placing before them a national vision of a prosperous India, rooted in its ancient wisdom and dharma.
