Management Concepts was proud to again support the Senior Executives Association (SEA) Leadership Summit as a Gold Sponsor. The 2021 Summit, held December 8-10, boasted a record attendance of over 2,000, due in part to the virtual format that enabled conference participation from across the United States and abroad. Attendees included members of SEA — an association serving senior leaders in federal government — as well as aspiring leaders and those in the private sector that provide solutions for the federal government supply chain and workforce.
Keynote Speakers in High-Level Federal Leadership
Keynote speakers included heavy hitters in government and the private sector who addressed the most pressing needs of today’s senior leadership. Among these speakers were Ambassador Gina Abercrombie-Winstanley, Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer at the U.S. Department of State; Kiran Ahuja, Director, Office of Personnel Management; and Robin Carnahan, Administrator, General Services Administration. These speakers tackled top-of-mind issues regarding diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) in federal government, organizational culture, workforce resilience, and the changing needs of today’s federal workforce.
Letter from President Biden President Joe Biden also showed his support for the federal workforce in a letter to SEA Leadership Summit participants: The White House Washington, DC December 8, 2021 I send greetings to all those attending the 2021 Senior Executives Association Federal Leadership Summit. Career civil servants are the backbone of the Federal workforce. As career senior executives and rising leaders, you have persisted through unprecedented challenges to deliver on your agencies’ missions, oftentimes without due recognition or fanfare. This Administration could not accomplish the important work we do on behalf of the American people without your essential contributions. I applaud the Senior Executives Association for holding this summit, which will strengthen the cohesion and collaboration of senior leaders across our government. By bringing together experts and drawing on the experience of Federal career leaders, you are providing additional tools for career civil servants to rise to the pressing challenges we face and help America to continue leading in the 21st century and for centuries to come. I am honored to serve alongside public servants like you who work tirelessly to improve the lives of Americans and people around the globe. You are truly making a difference. Thank you all for your continued commitment to our Nation. I wish you an enjoyable summit. [signed] Joseph Biden
