Governments Should Be Effective, Not Efficient
Briefly

The essence of capitalism—efficiency—might not be the right approach for the public sector, which must serve all people, not just customers.
Successful private-sector leaders often transition to public offices, but adaptability in specifics, such as open engagement and an experimental mindset, is crucial.
To succeed in government, one must create value that benefits the community collectively, contrasting with the business model where value gains are often captured individually.
Transitioning from business to government requires leaders to embrace a mindset of service, incremental innovation, and a focus on the greater public good.
