Public management is an approach to government administration and non-profit administration that resembles and/or draws on private-sector management and business techniques and approaches. These business approaches often aim to maximize efficiency and effectiveness and provide improved customer service. A contrast is drawn with the study of public administration, which emphasizes the social and cultural drivers of government that many contend (e.g. Graham T. Allison and Charles Goodsell) makes it different from the private sector.[citation needed] Studying and teaching about public management are widely practiced in developed nations.

 

In academia, the field of public management consists of a number of sub-fields. Scholars have proposed a number of different sets of sub-fields. One of the proposed models uses five "pillars":

 

  • Organizational theory in public administration is the study of the structure of governmental entities and the many particulars inculcated in them.
  •  
  • Ethics in public administration serves as a normative approach to decision making.
  •  
  • Policy analysis serves as an empirical approach to decision making.
  •  
  • Public budgeting is the activity within a government that seeks to allocate scarce resources among unlimited demands.
  •  
  • Human resource management is an in-house structure that ensures that public service staffing is done in an unbiased, ethical and values-based manner. The basic functions of the HR system are employee benefits, employee health care, compensation, and many more (e.g., human rights, Americans with Disabilities Act). The executives managing the HR director and other key departmental personnel are also part of the public administration system.
