Former Chair for the Oklahoma Department of Corrections, Rob Rainey is a no-nonsense leader with a critical eye for details. When Oklahoma’s governor appointed him to this volunteer position, he immediately recognized many options for significant improvement. He needed a way to identify targets with the most promising outcome-resource investment ratio. He used the OES as a starting point and sees it as a great decision for the organization he led.

The four countries of the United Kingdom have evolved to show a diversity in leadership that is very much worth watching. Three countries (England, Scotland, and now Wales) are led by non-white first ministers, while the fourth (Northern Ireland) is led by the second woman to hold the post in its history. #diversityinleadership #unitedkingdom #worldpolitics

The Senior Executive Association has signed on to the enclosed statement and is sharing the statement with our members who can individually sign on to the statement as well. "A group of non-partisan experts and scholars convened a workshop at the National Academy of Public Administration to discuss “Protecting and Reforming the US Civil Service.” This question has become urgent in light of plans, such as those outlined in the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, to revive the executive order issued at the end of the Trump administration to create a new “Schedule F.” The latter would reclassify large numbers of federal employees from positions with longstanding civil service protections that undergird their objectivity in advising political leaders about policy options based on evidence. Schedule F would convert those positions to “at-will” status, meaning that employees could be hired or fired based on political loyalty rather than competence or expertise This would likely have negative effects on the quality of American government by opening the door to politicization and patronage throughout the federal workforce."
