11th May 2015, 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm

In conjunction with Blackwell's Oxford, Blavatnik School of Government is hosting a panel discussion with Sir Michael Barber, Professor Christopher Hood and Professor Gwyn Bevan. They will be discussing Sir Michael's recent book How to Run a Government.

Citizens around the world are frustrated with the failure of their governments and politicians to deliver on the promises they make. In an age of growing transparency, government incompetence increasingly breeds cynicism and distrust.

In How to Run a Government, Sir Michael Barber draws on his experience of working with government leaders worldwide to develop a blueprint for successful governance - a new science of delivery.
