This edited volume makes a significant contribution to the ongoing research and practice of implementing performance management in university governance. Through extensive use of case studies and empirical findings, it offers a comparative approach and international perspective on the topic. A particular emphasis is placed on leveraging performance governance in higher education institutions, particularly in fulfilling their Third Mission. Furthermore, the book aims to enhance decision-makers' ability to navigate dynamic complexity by focusing on analyzing the cause-and-effect relationships in influencing public outcomes. This includes effectively managing trade-offs in both time and space, as well as identifying and mitigating unintended behavioral effects resulting from the reliance on formal systems that prioritize quantitative performance assessment.
