A change in governing culture is vitally necessary in order to transform the manner in which many government organizations operate. Businesses either change the way they do business or they go out of business when current challenges are not being met. However, government is perpetual which makes it more difficult to change in order to attain performance excellence as compared to its business counterparts. The main premise of this book is that government organizations can achieve performance excellence through the adoption of the proven principles set forth in this writing. It is time to adopt and implement a new leadership and management framework within the government which serves us all. The adoption and implementation of the Servant Governing Framework will ultimately lead to higher performance results for the government organization. Servant Governing stimulates creativity, mission focus, performance results and job satisfaction within organizations. Servant Governing is premised upon the belief that achievement of performance excellence in service to the citizens served by the government organization is not only desirable, but necessary. Servant Governing is premised upon four central cornerstones: People, Principles, Priorities and Performance. Each of the Four Cornerstones of the Servant Governing Framework is equally important in creating a people-focused, high performance, value-centered, problem-solving government organization. This book presents an examination of the interdependent nature of the various leadership and management components of the Servant Governing Framework with an eye toward giving the reader insight as to how a government organizational culture can be transformed; and, what is needed to transform it.
