National Administrative Studies Project
A Survey of Managers in Public, Private, and
Non-Profit Organizations in Georgia and Illinois
NASP - A Brief History
The National Administrative Studies Project has grown alongside the career of
Barry Bozeman. Each new edition of NASP aims to increase our empirical knowledge
of public management and administration. The first NASP project was the product
of a 1992 doctoral seminar taught by Bozeman at Syracuse University’s Maxwell
School. The data collected in the first NASP project (NASP-I), which was
administered to a sample of public and private managers in New York resulted in
two dissertations and over 20 journal publications.
NASP-II was developed in 2003 with many of the same themes as NASP-I such as
organizational culture, rules, and procedures, and public service. However, NASP-II
had a national focus but was restricted solely to state health and human service
agencies, rather than comparing public and private managers.
The NASP Omega data were developed from ISERF
grants from the Ivan Allen College of the Georgia Institute of Technology to
Barry Bozeman and Gordon Kingsley. The research findings do not necessarily
reflect the views of Georgia Institute of Technology. |
