Public administrations can be as flexible as competing companies. For about a dozen years, efforts have been made to achieve the necessary success using various models from the private sector, as well as through a comprehensive catalog of regulations that has achieved partial successes under the label "New Steering Model." Models generally work only when they are integrated into an adequate strategy. Additionally, a rigorous implementation is required through genuine change management, guided by the successes of well-managed companies. The practical handbook puts previous concepts to the test and demonstrates how structural, organizational, and mental changes can take effect. This includes some traditional success systems, but primarily through action guidelines that lead to multiple improvements and enable the replacement of door signs with proof of success.
