Abstract



Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türk Sayıştay
tarafında hazırlanan performans denetim raporları üzerinden, kamusal hesap
verebilirliğin gerçekleşmesinde stratejik planlamanın önem ve rolünü
incelemektir. Yeni Kamu İşletmecilik yaklaşımının etkisiyle, son yıllarda kamu
sektöründe, etkinlik ve hesap verebilirlik için stratejik planlama ve
performans yönetimine yönelik artan bir ilgi söz konusudur. Dünyadaki bu
değişim trendine paralel olarak, 2016 yılında yürürlüğe giren 5018 sayılı KMYK
ilebirlikte, Türk kamu yönetim sisteminde de benzer bir değişim gözlenmektedir.
Ne var ki,  Sayıştay tarafından
hazırlanan performans denetim raporları. kamu kurumlarında, stratejik yönetim
sisteminin işleyişinde kimi önemli eksiklikler olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır.
