renaissance bureaucrat
Abstract
Purpose – Since the early 1980s, western governments are assumed to have been either moving toward
post-bureaucratic models or transforming into so-called neo-Weberian bureaucracies. As different
public-sector (reform) models imply different ideal typical personality traits for civil servants, the purpose
of this paper is to ask the question to what extent personality requirements that governments demand from
their employees have evolved over time in line with these models.
Design/methodology/approach – The authors analyzed the use of big-five traits in a sample of 21,003
job advertisements for local government jobs published between 1980 and 2017, applying tools for
computer-assisted text analysis.
Findings – Using multilevel regression analyses, the authors conclude that, over time, there is a significant
increase in the use of personality descriptors related to all big-five factors.
Research limitations/implications – The authors postulate that governments nowadays are actively
looking for the “renaissance bureaucrat” in line with the neo-Weberian bureaucracy paradigm. The authors
end with a discussion of both positive and negative consequences of this development.
Originality/value – First, the authors explicitly link personality, public administration, and public
management using the Abridged Big-Five-Dimensional Circumflex model of personality. Second, by linking
observed trends in civil servant personality requirements to larger theories of public-sector reform models,
the authors narrow the gap between public administration theories and practice. Third, the software tools
that the authors use to digitalize and analyze a large number of documents (the job ads) are new to the
discipline of public administration. The research can therefore serve as a guideline for scholars who want to
use software tools to study large amounts of unstructured, qualitative data.
