What the professionals are saying:
Jerome Heer, retired Milwaukee County Auditor, former ALGA President:
“I would recommend this book to ANY auditor who wants to have impact. (And if they don’t want to have impact they should get a different career!)“
Mark Funkhouser, former Kansas City Auditor, Kansas City Mayor, Publisher of Governing Magazine; and now: President, Funkhouser & Assoc. Consulting; Chair, International Center for Performance Auditing; adjunct professor, Tulane University:
“I don’t know of anyone who has the breadth of experience that Gary Blackmer has in performance auditing or who is a more creative and independent thinker, consistently turning out impactful performance audits. Nothing else out there comes close to Good, Better, Best as a contribution to the performance auditing literature.“
Amanda Noble, City Auditor, City of Atlanta, former ALGA president, chair ALGA Advocacy Committee:
“Gary brings a wealth of experience, practical tools, and humor to his helpful guide for performance auditors. I can’t recommend it enough.”
Jenny Wong, former GAO auditor, City Auditor, City of Berkeley:
“Finally, a book in my profession that has been missing all these years. Gary’s insightful approach helps break down how to apply the auditing standards in an easily accessible way for performance auditors of all levels.”
