“…In this regard, of a strong component of politicisation of management positions found in the study, in addition to the hiring based on the culture of relationships, which sometimes deviate from the principles of meritocracy in the choice of leaders (namely when they do not have the expected competencies for the position), our findings do not converge with the study of Ferraz (2020), which investigated the factors that influenced the selection of top and middle managers of the Portuguese Central PA (n = 964) during the period from 2004 to 2011. Although the study confirmed the inexistence of factors guided exclusively by merit, the factors associated with the professional component (such as area of specialisation and similar functions performed previously in the PA) outweighed the political factors (including political ideology and party affiliation) in the selection of leaders.…”

“…In fact, despite the movements to bring public management closer to private management, advocated by the NPM in recent decades, the Portuguese PA still seems to be structured very much on Weberian concepts of rationality and control (Weber 2000). Curiously (given that according to Ferraz (2020), the bureaucratic model rewards merit), the comments of the respondents highlight the lack of a meritocratic culture in the selection of management positions and in the performance evaluation of civil servants, prevailing partisan appointments, exchanges of favours, the culture of "jobs for the boys"-a practice rooted in the State apparatus to compensate partisan loyalties with appointments of positions and to thus guarantee the control of the State machine (EcoSapo 2021).…”

“…More recently, the New Public Management journal has replicated skepticism in more moderate doses, suggesting more flexible models of recruitment and public careers, in addition to the replacement of ex-ante by ex-post controls, through performance evaluations (J. Denhardt & R. Denhardt, 2007;Ferraz, 2020).…”
