Mérito, Desempenho e Resultados - ensaios sobre gestão de pessoas para o setor público
O livro reúne uma feliz combinação de ensaios sobre a tão importante quanto difícil missão de gerir pessoas em organizações do setor público. Tendo a questão do mérito, do desempenho e dos resultados como foco principal, a gestão de pessoas é vista como uma política pública em si mesma. Questões éticas, culturais e históricas, valores e princípios, comportamento, estrutura e novas formas de contratualização das relações de trabalho no setor público são tratadas em ensaios baseados ora na prática e experiência de consultores e acadêmicos, ora em pesquisas e mapeamentos que permitem reconhecer a realidade da gestão de pessoas no setor público paulista e compará-la com a realidade em outros níveis de governo e do exterior. Leitura útil não somente para gestores públicos e profissionais de recursos humanos, mas também para estudantes, acadêmicos e para todos os que trabalham para o aprimoramento da gestão pública.
