THE PARTNERSHIP FOCUSES ON PROMOTING THE ACHIEVEMENTS AND STORIES OF PUBLIC SERVANTS ACROSS GOVERNMENT VIA THE SERVICE TO AMERICA MEDALS AND BROADER CAPACITY-BUILDING EFFORTS FOR GOVERNMENT TO MORE CAPABLY COMMUNICATE WITH, DELIVER FOR AND ENGAGE THE PUBLIC.

BY DEVELOPING THE SKILLS AND ABILITIES OF GOVERNMENT LEADERS AT ALL LEVELS, INCLUDING CAREER CIVIL SERVANTS AS WELL AS POLITICAL APPOINTEES, AND PROVIDING FORUMS FOR THEM TO DISCUSS SHARED CHALLENGES AND SOLUTIONS, THE PARTNERSHIP HELPS LEADERS BECOME AGENTS OF CHANGE WITHIN THEIR OWN AGENCIES AND ACROSS GOVERNMENT. OUR APPROACH TO DEVELOPING LEADERS IS GROUNDED IN OUR PUBLIC SERVICE LEADERSHIP MODEL, WHICH OUTLINES CORE VALUES GOVERNMENT LEADERS MUST EMBODY - STEWARDSHIP OF PUBLIC TRUST AND COMMITMENT TO THE PUBLIC GOOD - AND OUTLINES THE COMPETENCIES THEY NEED IN A MODERN GOVERNMENT AND AT EACH STAGE OF THEIR LEADERSHIP CAREERS.
