Paul A. Volcker Speaks at Senior Executive Association’s Presidential Rank Awards

Greeting “fellow bureaucrats” who share a vocation, Alliance Chairman Paul A. Volcker toasts members of the federal Senior Executive Service recognized for sustained, extraordinary accomplishment. “We have devoted most of our working lives to public service, making government work. These days we are currently reminded that can be hard and challenging, requiring unremitting effort to get it right…. No doubt, we have faced frustrations. But, in the end, there should also be a sense of satisfaction in devoting our energies and talents to the public good.” He invites those honored to join with the Volcker Alliance in the never ending challenge for a more effective government “of the people, by the people, for the people.”
