Combined with the creation of the Department of Government Efficiency, there's renewed pressure for government to operate more like the private sector. In theory, that might sound reasonable. But in practice, the comparison is not only unhelpful; it's often misleading. It ignores the fundamental difference between the two sectors: government missions are defined by mandates, not markets. To meet current mandates, the government and its industry partners need to reevaluate and redefine their partnerships.

Twenty years ago this August, Hurricane Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast. More than 1,300 lives were lost. It destroyed homes, displaced families, and overwhelmed many of the institutions that undergird civil society. It was also a wake-up call that reshaped how the country responds to natural disasters.
