2010 Government Performance Summit

For the past eleven years, government leaders have gathered to explore the latest mandates and best practices in performance management, program measurement and evaluation at the annual Government Performance Summit. The Summit is led by speakers from the upper echelons of the Executive branch and leading Government Managers who offer their experience and advice to managers looking to improve the results earned by their programs and agencies – putting attendees in the room with the decision-makers on management policy from the Administration and Congress.

The Government Performance Summit is part of the Innovations in Government Series, a project of The Performance Institute to highlight and spread best practices in government management in a new era of citizen transparency and public sector accountability.
