Many laws and policies intended to improve government performance have been enacted and implemented over the years. Those actions primarily impact overall measurement of results, like the Government Performance and Results Act; or management processes, like information technology, or financial management. Today, dozens of such laws and policies drive agency management actions.

Interest in artificial intelligence (AI) has surged across government. National and international legislation has been proposed, and U.S. Federal agencies are now implementing requirements set forth in the new Executive Order on AI.

Governments face increasingly serious, seemingly intractable public management
challenges that go to the core of effective governance and leadership,
testing the very form, structure, and capacity required to meet and
overcome such challenges. Many problems facing public sector leaders
are wickedly complex, do not respect bureaucratic boundaries, and are
nonlinear and fluid in nature, “where very small effects may produce disproportionate
impacts.” In many ways, traditional government approaches
seem obsolete and incapable of meeting evolving complexity. Prescriptions
