Strategic Planning Environment, Process, and Performance in Public Agencies: A Comparative Study of Departments in Milwaukee
本研究融合私营部门规划理论与公私组织差异研究，提出公共部门战略规划的理论框架，并通过密尔沃基市14个部门的调查数据，分析相关变量间的关联模式，为关键争论提供证据并指引未来研究方向。
This research presents a theoretical framework for studying strategic planning in the public sector that merges research on planning in the private sector and research on the differences between public and private organizations. The study identifies a set of variables relevant to this framework and measures these variables for fourteen departments within the City of Milwaukee using a wide range of survey questions that were tested and implemented in extensive interviews. Correlations for these variables display consistent patterns that lend evidence to key debates and direct future research in the field.
