The World Bank is using the rapid
results approach (RRA) to link leadership to managing for
results through practical capacity support to clients. The
Bank helps leaders engage operational teams in government to
achieve tangible results in 100 days. In the process the RRA
reveals institutional bottlenecks; and diagnosing and
removing these can help make a government more effective.
The RRA has been applied in about 23 Bank operations in 21
countries since 2002, primarily in Africa, and also in South
Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, North Africa, and to a
lesser extent in Eastern and Central Europe, with some
notable successes. The RRA has been used by the Bank and its
clients to: (i) improve capacity for diagnosing
institutional constraints; (ii) improve capacity for
project/program planning and implementation; (iii) increase
the results focus of a project/program; (iv) strengthen a
sense of accountability; (v) enhance engagement between
leadership and other stakeholders across multiple sectors;
and (vi) jump-start implementation of difficult or problem
projects. For public sector reform, good leadership means
the ability to drive change toward achieving the right
results. The Marseille Forum cases document how RRA has been
used to strengthen the capacity of government leadership to
make change happen in countries in transition, including
those in postconflict situations, in newly elected
governments, and in governments undertaking large-scale reforms. |
