What are innovations in government? In Search of the meanings and public values from government innovation awards
Wang, Mao
Abstract
Public sector innovation has been an increasingly important research field in recent decades, and much research has tried to figure out where innovations in government come from and diffuse. Research actually provides abundant findings and suggestions for not only academia but also practitioners. However, what is the definition of public sector innovation is still unclear. Heuristically, we regard something new in public service delivery and beneficial to the citizen as innovations, even though it might be called as change or reform as well. Many governments employ the mechanism of awards to raise incentives to innovate, in this study, the author examines the indicators among those government innovation awards and contrasts them with previous studies to sort out the meanings of public sector innovation. In addition, innovations in government could bring about or change public values directly, and this study will discuss the results and rethink the theory of public sector innovation from a practical perspective.
Keywords: innovation, public sector innovation, public values, government innovation award(s)
