Program Highlights
The Federal Executive Institute's Center for Executive Leadership               serves senior government leaders, especially alumni of the Leadership               for a Democratic Society program, and their agencies. CEL provides               custom and consulting services at FEI and at agency sites. It also               offers a series of open enrollment programs at FEI's Charlottesville,               Virginia campus. 

Executive Coaching is a key focus of our Custom               and Consulting services for FY 2003. As a federal executives               today, you face unprecedented challenges in leading your organization               effectively in an environment of escalating change and complexity.               Executive Coaching is a valuable tool, increasingly relied on by               private sector organizations, to support you and your team and enhance               your current and future effectiveness in their organizations. 

Our executive coaches work in partnership with you or your senior               team for a sustained period of time. They help identify your developmental               goals and pursue a plan for achieving those goals. They support               teams by helping members focus on group processes and functions               as well as individual issues. Executive Coaching is voluntary, confidential,               and tailored to the expectations and schedules of individual executives               and teams. 

FEI offers a choice of executive coaches who have the range of               experience, personal qualities, and organizational knowledge to               help you meet your developmental goals. You can learn how to apply               these techniques yourself in our Coaching Skills for Federal Executives               program. 

Four of our new open enrollment offerings for FY 2003 focus on               improving your effectiveness by helping you understand the linkages               and boundaries defining your organizations. These programs help               you make the most of your ability to work together in the new configurations               demanded by the people you serve. Leading               in the Virtual Work Environment and Collaborating               Across Organizational Boundaries focus on situations in which               team members work in different locations or for different organizations.

The events of September 11th have dramatically reshaped our world.               They have refocused priorities and created a new sense of urgency               for insuring we are getting results from government. We are fighting               a war against terrorism against a global terrorist network. The               front is not only overseas but right here at home. Everything we               do as public servants has taken on added meaning and added significance.

Meeting these challenges means reshaping government. The President               has provided aggressive leadership to transform the federal government.               He has put forth his vision of government reform, guided by three               principles: Government should be citizen-centered (customer-focused),               results-oriented, and market-based. The programs and seminars offered               at the Federal Executive Institute and the Management Development               Centers support this vision. Our Core Leadership Curriculum and               the other programs depicted in The Leadership Journey are specifically               designed around the competencies research has shown to be most needed               to effectively serve the President, the Presidency, and the American               people.

I am very pleased to announce OPM is also offering an integrated               curriculum to support the President's Management Agenda and its               five cross-cutting governmentwide initiatives:
-  Strategic Management of Human Capital  
- Competitive Sourcing  
- Improved Financial Performance  
- Expanded Electronic Government (e-Government)  
- Budget and Performance Integration

I believe it is no accident that strategic management of human               capital is first on the management agenda. There is really only               one way to transform government and that is through people. You,               the current and potential leaders of your agency, are the people               responsible for the day to day actions needed to create a citizen-centered,               results-oriented, and market-based government. Without you, we will               not be able to deliver the results the President has promised the               American people, the results we need to keep our nation safe and               prosperous in the 21st Century. Meeting these objectives will require               teamwork in every agency and department. To be successful, career               executives and political appointees must be working together toward               this common goal. One team, one fight, one victory!

The seminars and programs described in this FY 2003 catalog are               designed to provide you with the best practices and essential tools               to help your agency get the results necessary to achieve our vision               and "get to green" on the five initiatives in the President's               Management Agenda. 

President Bush said in introducing his management agenda, "good               beginnings are not the measure of success. What matters in the end               is completion. Performance. Results." 

I encourage you to come to the Federal Executive Institute and               the Management Development Centers. By taking back what you learn               to your agencies and applying it to producing real results for the               American people we will fulfill our promise, "Great Leaders               for Great Government".
