The PART project assesses the impact of administrative leadership on organizational performance and on citizens’ trust in government. PART studies how the professional background of administrative leaders affects (1) organizational performance; (2) employee motivation and task prioritization; and (3) citizens’ trust in bureaucracy. The focus is on the heads of agencies (regulatory, executive) and state-owned enterprises, comparing leadership backgrounds in politics and business to public sector backgrounds. PART collects and analyses multiple types of data, including biographical data, survey data, and survey experiments with bureaucrats and citizens. The Postdoctoral Fellow is expected to actively contribute to the broader research agenda and the research environment of the PART project.

The project is headed by Professor Tobias Bach  and funded under the ‘Young Researcher Talents’ scheme of the Norwegian Research council. The project will be part of the department’s research group on Policy, Bureaucracy, and Organization (PBO).
