George Washington University's Center for Excellence in Public Leadership is the result of an innovative public-private partnership established in 1997. The Center's mission is to develop public leaders who make a positive difference in their organizations and the lives of the people they serve, by providing leadership and management development experiences which inspire public leaders and are grounded in research and practical knowledge; creating collaborative networks among public leaders to share resources, knowledge, and experience. We accomplish our mission by working in three core areas: high-quality executive education in leadership and public management, research on state-of-the-art public management policies and practices, and expert management advice.
The Center brings more than 20 years experience to its work with federal managers. It provides both standardized training that prepares persons for the Senior Executive Service, and customized training to address specific training needs for a variety of managerial and supervisory levels. Open enrollment programs are currently offered in the areas of Senior Executive Development aimed at those interested in the Senior Executive Service, Executive Communication, Advanced Leadership, and Negotiation skills.

OhMyGov! wants better government -- a more creative, more efficient, smarter government! So we set out to do the unthinkable: build a news and information site about government that was both interesting and fun to read. We offer an entertaining mix of "good gov" stories about public sector innovations and advances (yep, imagine that!) and comforting "bad gov" tales of government embarrassments and outrages. In short, we cover anything that makes you say OhMyGov!
OhMyGov! was founded by 3 guys looking to make a difference — an experienced federal executive, a motivated government contractor and writer, and a best-selling investigative journalist. For more information, go to: http://ohmygov.com/.
