Joan Munro

Public Money & Management, 2015, vol. 35, issue 3, 219-226

Abstract: This paper examines what local government leaders might do to achieve more major cost-saving innovations. It brings together the findings from four UK studies on what encourages innovation in councils, covering the perspectives of council chief executives, frontline employees, political leaders and middle managers. It discusses the similarities and the differences between different groups' views. It suggests the most important actions local government leaders might take to successfully implement more significant innovations more quickly.
