The empirical results of executive survey on public administration reform are presented covering reform trends, reform results, results oriented culture and coordination in Lithuanian public administration during fiscal crisis since 2008. The survey acting as a tool to monitor the development of public administration reforms allows identifying important success and shortcomings that are otherwise difficult to measure employing other methods. The survey was carried out closely following the methodology of 3rd work package of "Coordinating for Cohesion in the Public Sector of the Future" (COCOPS)1. It is shown that although the public administration is evaluated as functioning better than before, there are serious perceived shortcomings in general approach to reforms, missing components in fostering results oriented culture, lack of horizontal coordination and overall negative effects of public administration reforms on the society. ; Straipsnyje pristatomi vadovaujančias pareigas užimančių valstybės tarnautojų požiūriai ir patirtys, susiję su viešojo administravimo reformų įgyvendinimu Lietuvoje finansų krizės metu. Remiamasi tyrimu atliktu vykdant Lietuvos mokslo tarybos finansuojamą projektą "Viešojo sektoriaus refomų stebėsena" (sutarties nr. PRO-10/2012) pagal "Proveržio idėjų" programą. Pateikiami pagrindiniai empiriniai aprašomieji tyrimo rezultatai šiais aspektais: taupymo strategijų ir priemonių paplitimas, reformų kryptys, tendencijos, pasitenkinimas reformomis, į rezultatus orientuotos kultūros paplitimas, reformų rezultatai, koordinavimas. Autoriai pažymi, kad yra rimtų trūkumų įgyvendinant viešojo administravimo reformas, formuojant į rezultatus orientuotą kultūrą, didinant koordinaciją tarp politikos sričių bei siekiant visuomenės sutelktumo.
