He is the author of Governance Reform: Bridging Monitoring and Action (World Bank, 2007), which builds on his 2006 work on governance monitoring featured in the 2006 Global Monitoring Report, Mutual Accountability: Aid, Trade and Governance.

From 1991 to 2003 he worked in the World Bank's Africa Vice Presidency on the challenges of strengthening the institutional underpinnings of African development, and from 1999-2003 was sector manager of the Africa Public Sector Reform and Capacity Building Unit.
