Outcome-based performance management in public sector is being popularized today by SBY cabinet. This was caused by the failure of the process and input based management approach, which could not guarantee high quality service. This study was conducted to measure the output of the two research and development units in PKP2A I LAN (hereinafter referred to as PKP2A I LAN Research Unit) in the form of research reports, local-government advocacy, scientific journals, and seminars. This study is focused on the research products between 2006 and 2010, whereas population for this research was local government apparatus. A set of questionnaires and key informants interview were used to collect data. The data was analyzed by quantitative approach with descriptive statistical techniques and qualitative approach with interactive data analysis models. Result of the research indicated that respondents were aware of PKP2A I LAN Research Unit existence. However, they did not understand its roles and services. They merely utilized research reports and advocacy output to support their main duty and function, such as design and formulation of policy studies, whilst output from seminars are utilized to enhance individual capacity, not organization. Consequently, PKP2A I LAN Reseach Unit ought to improve their publication and streghten their networking that quality of their products is acknowledged and trusted.Keywords: outcome measurement, performance management, PKP2A I LAN Research Unit.Manajemen kinerja berbasis outcome sedang dipopulerkan di sektor publik dewasa ini oleh Kabinet SBY. Kondisi ini merupakan reaksi dari gagalnya pendekatan manajemen berbasis proses dan input, yang tidak menjamin terselenggaranya pelayanan berkualitas tinggi. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengukur pencapaian outcome dari unit kerja pelaksana fungsi penelitian dan pengembangan di PKP2A I LAN (selanjutnya disebut Unit Litbang), yang dilaksanakan oleh Bidang Kajian Kinerja Kelembagaan dan Sumber Daya Aparatur (KKKSDA) dan Bidang Kajian Manajemen Kebijakan, Pelayanan, dan Otomasi Administrasi (KMKPOA), yakni yang berbentuk laporan kajian, kegiatan advokasi pemerintah daerah, jurnal ilmiah, dan seminar. Produk yang diukur adalah output program kerja tahun 2006 s.d. 2010, sedangkan populasinya adalah aparatur di tingkat pemerintahan daerah. Instrumen penelitiannya adalah kuesioner dan panduan wawancara yang dianalisa melalui pendekatan kuantitatif dengan teknik statistik deskriptif dan pendekatan kualitatif dengan model analisis data interaktif. Hasilnya cukup mengejutkan. Responden ternyata sudah mengetahui keberadaan Unit Litbang PKP2A I LAN, tetapi tidak memahami peran dan bentuk pelayanannya. Hasil kajian dan advokasi digunakan untuk kepentingan pelaksanaan tupoksi, seperti pembuatan telaahan dan penyusunan kajian kebijakan. Sedangkan seminar, hanya digunakan untuk peningkatan kapasitas individu, bukan organisasi. Solusinya, Unit Litbang PKP2A I LAN perlu meningkatkan publikasi produk dan memperkuat jejaring kerja sehingga lebih dikenal dan dipercaya kualitasnya.Kata kunci: pengukuran outcome, manajemen kinerja, Unit Litbang PKP2A I LAN.

The Future

Since the end of the 20th century, economists have been attracted to the study of the economics of happiness (e.g., Singh, & Alexandrova, 2020; Crespo & Mesurado, 2015; Ferrer-i-Carbonell,2013). The use of the term happiness characterizes an essential volume of this bibliographical production as a synonym for the words satisfaction, well-being, or quality of life (Teixeira&Vasque, 2020; Carlquist et al., 2017). Under this umbrella, the culture of happiness management teaches us that a management model or direction oriented to the holistic search for happiness or job satisfaction of its employees is one of the essential axial pieces that organizations have to increase the commitment of their human capital, and therefore, their productivity and business performance (Ravina et al., 2019). Public administration employees are not exempt from this reality, a group that is characterized by job stability compared to private company employees. This article is dedicated to them. The era of Industry 4.0 is a period that is characterized, among other things, by the high precariousness of labor that is originated by the implementation of management models in advanced economies. This phenomenon is derived from the technological point of view by the automation and massive robotization of production processes and the supply chain. Together with the digitalization of companies, both factors are very present in the ecosystems of the Covid-19, and have come, perhaps, to stay in the future (Bragazzi, 2020; Ghadge et al., 2020). In line with the above, a more holistic examination of this issue seems likely to show that there is a keen interest among people to enter into Work mostly in public administrations, in search of a permanent contract for their entire working life. As is known, this is especially true in countries with high unemployment levels, such as Spain. Its unemployment rate is 20.1% in mid-2020. In the collective imagination of these individuals, there is the conviction that this type of Work constitutes ambrosia of eudaimonic happiness, job security, and quality of life, especially at present, in times of the Covid-19 pandemic (Fernández-Urbano, & Kulic, 2020). In this sense, it should be noted that in the last decades of the 21st century, there has been a growing interest in researching public employees' job satisfaction (e.g., Ryu&Bae, 2020; Steijn &Van der Voet, 2019; Luechinge et al., 2010). Most of the studies carried out on this scientific topic to date show empirically that public sector workers are happier than individuals in the private sphere. It's basically due to the intrinsic benefits (flexibility, vacation, or family reconciliation, among others) that this type of government entity offers concerning for-profit organizations (e.g., Lahat&Ofek, 2020; Sánchez-Sánchez, & Puente, 2020; Danzer,2019). In this context, this article aims to examine, as a priority in the era of Industry 4.0, whether there are observed differences in the levels of congratulations between human capital working in the private sector and that working in the public sector in Spain, by analyzing a set of variables that define positions: hours, salary, stability, promotion, and stress. Finally, we must indicate, on the one hand, that the choice of this spatial framework is motivated by the scarce literature investigating the happiness of Spanish public employees in an economy with high levels of youth unemployment (Núñez-Barriopedro et al., 2020). On the other hand, the results achieved in this study may be useful in the future for the implementation of public policies aimed at significantly promoting the welfare of working citizens through the happiness management approach (Ravina-Ripoll et al., 2019), or for taking this management concept to private companies to increase the motivation of their employees (Foncubierta-Rodríguez & Sánchez-Montero, 2019). Keywords: Happiness, human resources, Industry 4.0, public sector.

Accounting reforms in the public sector aims to improve the quality of information provided to decision makers and stakeholders. Improving the quality of information needed to drive accountability and performance in public sector organizations. This is important because the accounting information plays a key role in decision-making in the organization. This study aims to determine "how accounting information is interpreted by the community and Gowa local government in the construction of public accountability". This study involves an interpretive methodology that uses the perspective of understanding nominalism from the nominalists who see social reality as something that is none other than the label, name, or concept that is used to construct reality. The nominalists view that there is no real thing. The names are only considered as artificial creations whose utility depends on the appropriateness of describing, giving meaning, and negotiate something or the outside world. The study found that the Gowa local government has not made a voluntary effort to adjust the model management and reporting of accountability to the specific needs of their community. Such adjustments should begin with a clear definition of the objectives assigned to the local government, so it can be found indicators to measure the extent to which objectives have been achieved. That is, these indicators can be used in conjunction with economic and financial indicators of more traditional and so easily understood by the public.

The change from a politically-sanctioned racial segregation opened support of another popularity based administration which was an overwhelming procedure at all levels. In South Africa, the positive policies to turnaround the economy of the country came along with cadre deployment policy which advocates for ANC party loyalists to occupy a prominent position in the public sector. This political patronage via state jobs leads to poor institutional quality or performance of the nation as a whole. Focusing on the significant association between the demands of economic growth and expansion, this paper assesses the effects of the cadre deployment policy against performance management in the public sector. It presents a proposed framework based on the control theories illustrating how cadre deployment and performance management can contribute to the current knowledge of the African academic and administrative environment. The article adopted an extensive review of literature which was premised on various document sources that inform cadre deployment, Auditor General Reports, Annual Reports and relevant literature on the subject. Results of this study showed that cadre deployment exacerbated corruption, poor procurement systems and wasteful expenditure and the deteriorating State of Local Government.  The article calls for the review and the changes of the authoritative structure governing local municipalities in order to supplement Section (152) of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa. The article further directs the ANC led government to revise the cadre deployment policy to combat the challenges of severe skills shortage and poor service delivery in various municipalities across the country as a result of nepotism, politicization and hiring unqualified labour.

Purpose Craniofacial anomalies (CFA) often result in growth abnormalities of the facial skeleton adversely affecting function and appearance. The functional problems caused by the structural anomalies include upper airway obstruction, speech abnormalities, feeding difficulty, hearing deficits, dental/occlusal defects, and cognitive and psychosocial impairment. Managing disorders of the craniofacial skeleton has been improved by the technique known as distraction osteogenesis (DO). In DO, new bone growth is stimulated allowing bones to be lengthened without need for bone graft. The purpose of this clinical focus article is to describe the technique and clinical applications and outcomes of DO in CFA. Conclusion Distraction can be applied to various regions of the craniofacial skeleton to correct structure and function. The benefits of this procedure include improved airway, feeding, occlusion, speech, and appearance, resulting in a better quality of life for patients with CFA.

Swallow Function

Lung cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers across Northern America and Europe. Treatment options offered are dependent on the type of cancer, the location of the tumor, the staging, and the overall health of the person. When surgery for lung cancer is offered, difficulty swallowing is a potential complication that can have several influencing factors. Surgical interaction with the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) can lead to unilateral vocal cord palsy, altering swallow function and safety. Understanding whether the RLN has been preserved, damaged, or sacrificed is integral to understanding the effect on the swallow and the subsequent treatment options available. There is also the risk of post-surgical reduction of physiological reserve, which can reduce the strength and function of the swallow in addition to any surgery specific complications. As lung cancer has a limited prognosis, the clinician must also factor in the palliative phase, as this can further increase the burden of an already compromised swallow. By understanding the surgery and the implications this may have for the swallow, there is the potential to reduce the impact of post-surgical complications and so improve quality of life (QOL) for people with lung cancer.
