The center of government (CoG) is the institution or group of institutions that provide direct support to the chief executive (president or prime minister) in leading the management of government.[1] Unlike line ministries and other government agencies, the CoG does not deliver services directly to the citizens, and it does not focus on a specific policy area.[2] On the contrary, the CoG performs cross-government functions. A similar concept is "Core Executive".[3]
