Public Money & Management, 2023, vol. 43, issue 1, 36-44

Abstract: This research evidence that ‘public value is in the eye of the beholder’, i.e. ingroup bias and the relationship of the individual as a normative stakeholder can both affect the public value perception of an institution. This finding is useful for practitioners and policy-makers seeking to carry out performance management of public, religious, or nonprofit organizations from a public value perspective. Ingroup bias may be a particularly important issue for public management in settings where political polarization is escalating.
