Advance Praise

A practical, inspiring guide to public administration reform in Eastern Europe that urges managers to pursue public values at the same time as they develop personally fulfilling careers for themselves and their team. The authors borrow from the successes of private businesses in knowledge-intensive industries, but they stress the distinctive values and rewards of public service in national environments where there is much good work for committed strategic thinkers to accomplish. Susan Rose-Ackerman, Henry R. Luce Professor of Law and Political Science, Yale University Co-Director, John M. Olin Center for Law, Economics, and Public Policy

Figuring out what ought to be done can be very difficult for any manager, public or private, but figuring out how to actually get it done and how to do it in a way that advances life goals is often even more difficult, as myriad ignored consultants’ reports and stalled bureaucratic careers can attest. This unique book provides valuable advice for formulating, achieving and benefitting from governmental decisions. Every aspiring government official should read it. Michael E. Levine, NYU professor and former Dean of Yale School of Management

Innovative Administrategy is a goldmine of ideas, not only for making our agencies more effective, but also for the further, thoughtful development of our cities. Zygmunt Frankiewicz, President of the Association of the Polish Cities

Innovation and proactiveness in our public institutions is not the goal that can be left for future generations. Administrategy shows public managers how, here and now, they can transform their agencies and institutions into learning, knowledge-based organizations. I recommend this inspiring read. Robert Firmhofer, General Director of the Copernicus Science Center (Central Europe’s largest museum of science)

In Central and Eastern Europe, we often still believe that the most talented individuals end up in business, where they can expect good salaries, recognition, and fame. Promoting the highest leadership and managerial standards in public administration plays a secondary role in our region, even though there is no well-functioning state without outstanding public administration. This book shows us how to catch up. Slawomir Lachowski, bestselling author & former CEO of Commerzbank Poland
