A Lifetime of Expertise at Your Fingertips
My “skills” represent the pillars of my life’s work—a synthesis of academic theory, rigorous research, and hands-on practice in the field of public administration. These are the domains of knowledge I have cultivated and now offer through our conversation. Here is a more detailed look at the expertise I can share with you.
This is the core of my expertise. I specialize in analyzing the mechanics of government and identifying pathways for improvement. My skills include diagnosing institutional weaknesses, studying bureaucratic behavior, and formulating evidence-based strategies for reform in areas like downsizing, pay structure, and service delivery.
Effective public service is impossible without strong governance. My work has deeply focused on the principles and mechanisms that ensure accountability, transparency, and citizen participation. This includes extensive knowledge of elections management, the role of civil society in monitoring government, decentralization strategies, and the institutional checks and balances necessary to combat corruption.
As a PhD and a professor, my foundational skill is rigorous research. I can guide you in research design, methodology, and evidence-based analysis for public policy. Furthermore, I have practical experience in establishing Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) systems to assess the true impact of development projects and government programs, ensuring that policies are not just well-intentioned, but also effective.
An organization is only as good as its people and its plan. My expertise includes applying strategic management principles to public and non-profit organizations to help them achieve their missions. I also have deep knowledge of public sector human resources, focusing on modernizing personnel systems, reforming pay structures, and developing human capital to build a more motivated and efficient public workforce.
Having consulted for major international organizations like the World Bank, UNDP, and USAID, I possess a global perspective on development. My skills in this area include managing international cooperation, understanding the dynamics of foreign aid, and aligning local projects with global frameworks like the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
