the object of the empirical research. The diagnosis of the condition of Lithuanian district municipalities’
administrations was accomplished. On the basis of theoretical and empirical investigations of the authors,
a model of performance improvement of Lithuanian public administration institutions (on the selfgovernment
level) was developed.
