The "Government management 2.0" event, which took place at the Vienna Chamber of Commerce on March 11, 2010, was hosted by the Vienna University Management Club . The events drew big-name guests from politics, education and business, including Dr. Roland Falb, Partner at Roland Berger Strategy Consultants.
Austria has been trailing other countries in terms of organization models for some time now, and not only since the crisis. The national debt already comprises 70% of Austria's GDP. The key question here is how the government can change this and whether it can be changed at all. The problems the government has to deal with were illustrated using examples from the Austrian education and healthcare system. "Clear structures and assignment of tasks help establish both efficient and effective functions," said Dr. Falb during the panel discussion on healthcare. Countries in Asia and Scandinavia have already integrated management structures in public administration. Is this also conceivable for Austria?
According to the UNIMC team, "Government management 2.0 is intended to trigger and drive public discussion." The various viewpoints on this topic were represented by Professor Heinz Mayer (Institute for Government and Public Law of the University of Vienna), Dr. Roland Falb (Managing Partner at Roland Berger Strategy Consultants), Mag. Karin Holzer (Head of Facility Management, Service, Public Management, Office of the Federal Chancellor), Mag. Maria Vassilakou (deputy federal speaker, municipal councilwoman and chairwoman of the Green Party in Vienna), Dr. Eduard Pesendorfer (Director of the Upper Austria's State government's office) and DI Herbert Paierl (President of the Management Club Austria).
