The Concepts of Markets for Public Sector Organizations
One of the key features of the Vining article is the consideration of what is the public sector equivalent to the "margin" of profit in the private sector, starting on page 67.
To answer the discussion, please consider the following.
, please consider what you think of as the "market" for public and non-profit sector organizations. Does this vary by level of government, for example between local government and federal agencies? Is there a difference across agencies at the same level of government? Is the term "market" relevant to the public and non-profit sectors or is another term or framework more relevant? Another way of asking this question is to consider what the public or private sector organization is trying to maximize.Discussion assignment
Please find an actual strategy plan document on the web for a public sector agency. Please do not use any organizations previously considered.
The Market and Bottom Line Discussion
Please list the name of the organization and the web site address that you found this organization. Please list the markets that your public sector organization serves. Please list the bottom line measurements or performance measurements of success in serving those markets. Please post this in the discussion section: first section on markets served; the second section is the bottom lines or performance measures. For both sections please list the organization name and web site so your classmates and faculty can explore that web site and strategic plan. In addition to your formal post, please respond to at least two classmates’ discussion posts.
