Transparency and Public Trust
Each of the administrator examples given are a good representative of what it means to be transparent in order to gain and keep the public's trust.

Not because it was so much better than the other examples, but because of the processes in place that is unique to the service provided. Maurice's transcript is chosen as the one providing an excellent example of transparency and accountability for his organization.

If the Department of Human Resources performed these audits on a six-month or more basis, there is a possibility that the service provided might not be as good. The ninety (90) day audit keeps employees on their toes and makes them constantly aware that excellent service is a must.
Gaining the public's trust is important because if the public is satisfied with the service the organization provides, this generally means they trust the organization.

This leads to the inability to compare financial statements reliably with each other (Seay & Ford, 2010). A second concern is that the income statement will reflect increased volatility due to fair market writeups or writedowns. The third concern is the inconsistency in valuing some assets and liabilities at the current exit price. The fourth concern is whether price reflects the intrinsic value of the asset. It is suspected
Public Policy and Unintended Consequences: A Review of Stakeholders and Incentives There are a myriad of unintended consequences that relate to changes in public policy, specifically relating to management characteristics and priorities. Without taking these changes into consideration, it is impossible to impart change that will positively impact any group or population. The specific changes relative to the public sector reform in the UK are causing many unintended consequences themselves. The
Finally, social networks have the ability to tag specific content down to the image and determine their privacy stings. It would be a good idea to also understand these settings as well. How confident could/should one be that such information is kept secure? Given the advertising-based model many of the social networking sites are reverting to, there is little probability that all information a person requests to be secure will stay
