公共組織是一高度策略導向的組織體，任何管理措施必須要以支援策略的規劃及達成為首要目標。員額管理是公共組織管理的重要一環，本研究論述在策略導向的原則之下，政府員額管理的重點，必須從數量化的精簡，轉化為依據政府策略的需要，提供適質適量的合理化管理。而在實務運作上，必須從傳統的人事行政理念著重管制、防弊、穩定、成本控制、高度制度化等原則，注入與策略規劃對彈性、結果（產出）導向、變動等特質的強調，並提出「扁平型組織策略：解除由上而下的員額配置控管」、「虛擬組織策略：推動員額總量管理」及「彈性化策略：人力跨機關與跨部門的統籌調配與靈活運用」，作為落實員額管理合理化的主要策略。

Public organization is a highly strategically oriented body in which any management measures should be implemented with a primary goal of supporting the planning and achieving of organization's strategies. Faculty quota management plays an important part in the management of public organizations. This study stated that the importance in faculty quota management is, rather than focusing on reducing the numbers of faculty, providing reasonable management of appropriate quality and quantity based on the needs of our government under the principle of strategy orientation. In practical operation, the government should put more emphasis on flexibility, product-oriented and change rather than on control, preventive measures against corruption and malfeasance, cost control, high institutionalization which were very important in traditional personnel administration. Besides, this study also suggested several strategies for implementing reasonable faculty quota management including decentralization: decrease the top-down faculty quota management; flatter organization: promoting faculty quota management; flexible government: overall planning and allocation as well as flexible use of manpower across departments and agencies.
