Organizational Performance in the Public Sector
Organizational Performance in the Public Sector

Summary/Abstract: The process of measuring performance in the public sector is particularly difficult for many reasons. The work outlines and explains these reasons. The paper contains arguments for generalizing in Romania the performance measurement of public sector organizations and presents a set of indicators to measure it. The author presents the stages of the implementation process of the public sector performance management and explains what they are, and what are the steps for implementing a performance management system in public organizations in Romania. The author proposes a set of key performance indicators that could be generalized and applied in all public institutions in Romania for the individual evaluation of the public managers, as well as the activity of the collective management structures within them. The final part of the paper contains the findings of an author's research. This shows that the implementation of performance management in public sector organizations in Romania is an essential way of action that naturally leads to the reduction of public expenditures and the increase of the degree of satisfaction of the public interest by the Romanian public institutions.
