About the book

In Lorraine Cochran-Johnson’s new book Government Reimagined, Lorraine merges her diverse professional background, empirical knowledge, and practical experiences in corporate America and government to create best practices for service-based organizations. Government Reimagined comes at a time when many urban environments across the United States are experiencing a housing crisis, unprecedented growth, gentrification, rising crime, diminishing green space, aging infrastructure, and an increased need for social services. Her book lays the foundation for elected officials to think differently and shifts the paradigm from traditional thought and partisan politics to government as a corporate entity that masters service delivery and adopts best practices to survive the normal probability distribution of the bell curve.

Written strategically to build upon a foundation that begins with leadership and vision, Government Reimagined carries the reader from basic organizational theory to strategic economic development. Core chapters walk the reader through the guiding principles that have helped Lorraine manage million-dollar corporations and deliver results. The book introduces the concept of 3 Cs – care, conviction, and capacity. It is the 3 Cs that Lorraine presents as the essential characteristics of leaders who excel in all walks of life.

The importance of human capital takes center stage, as Government Reimagined encourages service-based organizations to make people the central focus to achieve extraordinary results within the organization. Lorraine makes an appeal to bridge the growing economic gap between those who have and lack resources in America. Explore the complexity of social service delivery and the inability to legislate morality and decency, as we see increases in violent crimes within our communities. Lorraine’s theories incorporate an abundance of classical thought by nationally acclaimed theorist Peter Drucker; Barry Posner and James M. Kouzes; Irvin L. Janis; and former President Teddy Kennedy. Whether you are a corporate executive, politician, or student exploring human motivation, leadership or the complex issues facing modern government you are guaranteed to find value in this masterfully written book that uses DeKalb County, Georgia as its’ case study.
