Abstract

As our world moves towards more global, highly competitive, yet inter‐related economies, excellence shown by executives and leaders in the management of business and public enterprise becomes critical. States that the key to this excellence is training and development. What are the differences between government agencies and private corporations? How does this affect the skills required by their respective executives? Citing his own and other research the author discusses executive development in the Executive Branch of the United States Federal Government, citing differences and similarities in the skills required of corporate executives and challenges for the future. Proposes greater co‐operation and a partnership among all providers of executive development in the face of a shrinking global world.
