TOP CITED ARTICLE IN 2024! What a wonderful surprise! I just learned that our paper, co-authored with the fantastic Robert P. Shepherd, PhD, CE — "Delivering Results for Canadians: Improving the Contributions of Enabling Functions" — ranks among the top 10 most-cited papers in Canadian Public Administration / Administration publique du Canada for 2024! The journal is published by the Institute of Public Administration of Canada (IPAC). It has been a true pleasure working with Rob, and I'm thrilled to see our collaboration recognized this way. To everyone who read, shared, and cited our work — thank you! It is deeply rewarding to know that our research is contributing to the conversation on governance and public administration in Canada. Best of all, our paper is open access and accessible here: https://lnkd.in/eq3wGkmM #PublicAdministration #Governance #CanadaPolicy #IPAC
