Overview
The Partnership for Public Service (PPS) works to revitalize the federal government by inspiring a new generation to serve and by transforming the way government works. The Partnership pursues the following strategic goals: (1) increase public support for government and mobilize stakeholders who can drive change, (2) conduct outreach to inspire and educate young people and other key pools of talent needed by government, and (3) provide hands-on assistance to federal agencies from both in-house experts and private sector partners to create models of reform, conduct research to measure government performance in ways that promote transparency and accountability, and grow and train a new class of change agents within our government.
PPS recognizes that this is an opportune time in its organization's history to renew and revitalize its strategic plan. It has contracted with The Bridgespan Group to develop a new business plan that articulates a coherent theory of change that supports its mission and defines an actionable course for pursuing and measuring its intended impact. With this project support grant, PPS will conduct a comprehensive examination and prioritization of its work, finances, and potential for impact and future direction. In the end, PPS will develop a robust business plan that positions the organization in such a way as to maximize its impact and resources over the next three to five years.
