Abstract
The article evaluates and compares impact- and result-oriented management approaches in environmental planning, sustainability strategies, new public management, and development cooperation. In all of these policy fields, some prerequisites for success can be identified. For example, it is crucial that goals are precise, that sufficient funds are allocated and that the process of goal achievement receives political support. The added value of result-oriented management concepts can be identified mainly in the fact that they may markedly enhance process design as well as motivation and cooperation among the stakeholders, rather than ensuring effective problem-solving at the subject level. It is concluded that result-oriented management concepts should be understood as one of several, mutually supportive elements of institutional innovations for sustainable development.
