Abstract

South Korea (hereafter Korea) has had a later start than advanced Western countries in the use of performance management methods. However, over the past 15 years or so, Korea has had experience in using various performance management systems in many different areas. This study first explains the development of performance management and the level of its application in the Korean public sector. After that, this study attempts to identify the constraining factors (the competitive environment, incentives and discipline, management governance, value orientation, and the time frame of the performance process) on the effectiveness of performance management in the public sector and seeks ways to overcome such limitations, based on the diverse experience of performance management systems in the Korean public sector.
