History
The IBM Center for The Business of Government (The IBM Center) connects public management research with practice. Since 1998, we have helped public sector executives improve the effectiveness of government with practical ideas and original thinking. We sponsor independent research by top minds in academe and the non-profit sector, and we create opportunities for dialogue on a broad range of public management topics.
The IBM Center has awarded nearly 200 research stipends to leading public management researchers in the academic and non-profit communities. These stipends have resulted in over 150 reports, which are available on this site (go to Center Publications). Our reports focus on the major issues facing all governments today: e-government, financial management, human capital management, managing for performance and results, market-based government, and innovation, collaboration and transformation. This website also contains information on how one can apply for future research stipends.
In addition to Center reports, our website also includes interviews with over 100 top government executives who discuss their careers and the management challenges facing their organizations. These interviews were originally broadcast on The Business of Government Hour. You can listen to these interviews (in .mp3 format) or read the interview transcripts.
The IBM Center is one of the ways that IBM seeks to advance knowledge on how to improve public sector effectiveness. The IBM Center focuses on the future of the operation and management of the public sector.
