Gwanda State University Heads of Departments recently signed their performance contracts,
an initiative that seeks to foster a high-performance culture across the entire public sector.
The performance contracts were signed in order to enhance accountability and transparency.
Accordingly, what’s measured, gets done. The contracts will be evaluated quarterly based on
delivery, efficacy, management and implementation.
Permanent Secretaries were the first to sign performance contracts in 2021 before the
measure was extended to ministers and across the heads of local authorities, State-owned
enterprises and state Universities in 2022.
