Well, I like the idea of training political appointees in how to actually manage their staff - that's a skillset that should be taught to people in charge if they don't have it already.
But the rest of the plan misses the point. Government is not a business - it does things that businesses cannot (or will not) do. Trying to turn it into a business would make it less effective.

them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."
