While elected officials create and approve policy, it is up to administrators to carry out those policies and execute them in reality. This requires managing resources, personnel, and other logistical factors to ensure that policy goals are achieved. Oversight (A) and public scrutiny (D) are important but closely related to policy execution. Nonprofit management (C) is not directly related to the duties of most government administrators.
