Efficiency with lost effectiveness (human rights violations, minimal accountability for funds usage and pretty much anything) is not efficiency.
If you give a $50,000,000 contract to a private individual (company) to run a public service, what metrics do you use to determine effectiveness?
If you budget $50,000,000 to a public dept to run a public service, what metrics do you use to determine effectiveness?
If it’s not the same metrics, you CAN’T compare efficiency.
=====
“Motivation” is for method actors.
A service is a service.
Is it effective or not?
Only once you can measure effectiveness, can you even think about working on efficiency.
====
This distinction is muddled in politics but it’s not difficult.
With efficiency, you can say, “Look, it got done quickly” – but did the right thing get done?
