Charlotte Dargie

Public Money & Management, 2000, vol. 20, issue 3, 39-44

Abstract: This article is an exploration of the role of the chief executive and its relation to the political and environmental context. It draws on case studies of chief executives from the public, private and voluntary sectors, which looked at what chief executives do and how their role relates to the context in which they work. The author uses a comparative theoretical framework, which includes position, organization, environment and decision-making to highlight cross-sectoral differences. Comparative concepts are used to explain difference and variability in the chief executives' work. The article develops propositions about the nature of chief executives' work that could be tested in further studies.
