How can programs and organizations ensure they are adhering to core principlesand assess whether doing so is yielding desired results? From evaluation pioneer Michael Quinn Patton, this book introduces the principlesfocused evaluation (PFE) approach and demonstrates its relevance and application in a range of settings. Patton explains why principles matter for program development and evaluation and how they can serve as a rudder to navigate the uncertainties, turbulence, and emergent challenges of complex dynamic environments. Indepth exemplars illustrate how the unique GUIDE framework is used to determine whether principles provide meaningful guidance (G) and are useful (U), inspiring (I), developmentally adaptable (D), and evaluable (E). Userfriendly features include rubrics, a PFE checklist, firsthand reflections and examples from experienced PFE practitioners, sidebars and summary tables, and endofchapter application exercises.
