Summary:

Discusses major themes and management policy options for Congress that emerge when the general management laws are viewed together, as a whole. Addresses five topics including discretion for the executive branch, standardization vs. customization, functional silos vs. integrated general management, making and measuring progress, and agency "chief officers" and interagency councils. Describes historical context of the roles that Congress and the President play in managing the executive branch, and compares management in the public and private sectors.
