New Public Management Approach

New Public Management (NPM) is an approach to running public services that emphasizes efficiency, effectiveness, and responsiveness, inspired by private sector practices. It encourages competition, performance measurement, and customer service focus. In the context of Comparative Administration, NPM allows for assessing how different countries or regions manage public services, seeking best practices and innovations. By valuing results over processes, NPM aims to improve government performance and adapt to changing societal needs while promoting accountability and transparency in public administration.
