La misurazione della performance accademica: un'analisi applicata al "costo standard per studente in corso"
2017
The recent introduction of the “standard cost per regular student”, as a criterion adopted by the Italian Ministry of Education to measure public university performance, implies a deep afterthought of those methods underlying the design of performance management and measurement systems in Italian universities. This has also to be extended – through a systemic perspective – to the evaluation of the Third Mission activities influencing the corresponding socio-economic context. With the intent to support a diagnostic activity related to the academic performance, this paper aims at introducing a system of output-outcome indicators – within a consistent framework – oriented to measure the driver…

Using System Dynamics to Assess a Web 2.0 Governance Model for Public Service Delivery
2011
In the last decade Public Administrations (PA) have introduced new governance models to design, implement and deliver public services to citizens. Such models have been also driven by the New Public Management (NPM) movement, which contributed to increase the pressure on PA, of both central governments and communities, to design more citizen-centric oriented services aimed to improve PA outcomes, efficiency and accountability. A key-lever on which PA can act on to reach the above goals is the use of WEB 2.0 technologies, which can enhance a fruitful collaboration between citizens and PA, not only in an ex-post analysis, but also, and in particular, in an ex-ante phase, letting the final use…
Performance Management and Governance in Public Universities: Challenges and Opportunities
2022
The goal of this introductory chapter is to outline a set of problematic issues, challenges, and opportunities behind this topic, so to provide a key to the subsequent chapters. How can we frame sustainable performance, if referred to an organization (such as a public HEI) located in a given context? What binds governance with performance management in the field of HEIs? What challenges are associated with different governance perspectives in HEIs? Why linking performance management to governance is particularly crucial in the investigated field?
Enhancing the governance of local areas through Dynamic Performance Management
2017
This doctoral dissertation applies the findings of explanatory studies in the field of Dynamic performance management (DPM) to the public sector. Purpose. This work aims to show how DPM may support decision-makers in outlining sustainable policies for local areas. The study investigates local areas as meta-organizations. Design. The research takes a relativist perspective and investigates social phenomena through a deductive-inductive approach where qualitative research strategies assume a descriptive account in accordance with management science and System Dynamics (SD) tradition. The systematic review of the evolution of management models of public sector organizations sets the ground for…
Public Accounting Teachings Through the 19th Italian Century
2013
This paper tries to offer an Italian point of view about the theme of public accounting teachings. We focused our attention on the Italian case during the 19th century because this period was very significant for our purpose. In particular, we considered the teachings that were held in Pavia and Padua and the eminent figures of the correspondent professors: Villa and Tonzig. In this sense, the aims of this paper are: • To analyze the characteristics of the Italian context at the time; • To describe the contents of the mentioned teachings in consideration of the different Professors’ backgrounds and ideas; • To make a comparison between the contents of the two considered courses in relation …
Patronage and the Public Service: A Dynamic Performance Governance Perspective
2020
Patronage is one of the enduring issues in public administration. Although the virtues of merit-based recruitment and retention in the public service are extolled widely, patronage of some form persists in many, if not most, countries. By using system dynamics modeling applied to performance governance, this chapter provides an analysis of both the pathological and the eufunctional aspects of patronage appointments in the public sector. It also considers the potential virtues of using patronage appointments. In addition, using a dynamic performance governance model, we examine how patronage may actually improve the performance of public services.
Tackling wicked issues in performance management and governance of health prevention: an empirical analysis of vaccination strategies in Italy
Performance management (PM) in the public sector is a research stream that grasped much of the attention of public administration and management scholars in the last decade (Bouckaert & Halligan, 2007; Hall, 2017; Douglas & Ansell, 2020). This is mainly related to the ever-evolving context in which PM regimes apply. Our society and its current challenges are indeed growing in complexity so that these last have been defined by modern literature as “wicked” (Rittel & Weber, 1973; Head & Alford, 2015). Wicked does not mean “evil” but it refers to the impossibility to share an understanding of societal problems and their definition. According to Head & Alford (2015),“wickedn…
Scritti in onore di Pellegrino Capaldo
2014
La qualità dei servizi è stata riconosciuta come un rilevante aspetto caratterizzante la performance dell’azienda pubblica, analogamente alla capacità di operare secondo criteri di efficienza e nel rispetto dei vincoli di bilancio. Sebbene sia possibile riscontrare alcuni significativi casi di adozione di politiche di customer satisfaction nelle amministrazioni pubbliche italiane, a tutt’oggi il tema presenta significative criticità, specialmente in ordine agli aspetti metodologici e agli strumenti operativi che consentano di integrare dette politiche nel sistema di programmazione e controllo delle aziende che erogano tali servizi. Il presente lavoro adotta una diversa prospettiva di analis…
