Lesson
Developing - soft - capacities. Institutionalizing change management practices among those charged with implementing reforms - such as the efforts undertaken in the program to provide staff with technical skills to implement systems and procedures at the Ministry of Finance and Planning (MOFP) and the key revenue departments - requires upgrading of technical and change management competency. It is necessary to enable government to sustain capacity development programs beyond the life of a program (for example, by providing training experts, particularly to develop soft capacities).

Lesson
A sequence to reforms. A key consideration in sequencing is that legislative and regulatory reforms require changes in the capacity of institutions (policy and rules), organizations charged with implementation, and the competencies of responsible government officers to change their management practices. This cascade of legislation-institutions-organizations-people provides a strategic sequence for reforms. However, in practice this is not a linear sequence. Rather, people (officials and stakeholders) are involved from the outset of the reform process.
