Conferences on
Business Operations
One-week conferences are held
for senior government execu-
tives in cities in which the
national headquarters of major
U.S. corporations are located.
Each conference, through
first-hand exposure to principal
areas of business activity,
sharpens the sensitivity of
participants to the operations
and problems of key
corporations, and to the
responsibilities and motivations
of corporate executives.
Each program includes
sessions with officers of nine
or ten leading corporations,
usually with the chief executive
officer and several senior
executives. Dinner sessions
with businessmen or thoughtful
observers of American business
are generally a part of each
program. Readings are sent in
advance, but the heart of
the educational process is
informal and frank discussion,
without attribution or publicity.
The dates and locations of the
five conferences planned for
1971-72 are as follows:
October 31-November 5, 1971
Pittsburgh
December 5-10, 1971

Three six-day conferences for
senior scientists, administrators

public policy.
Each participant group is
comprised of senior science
executives, including the bio-
logical, engineering, mathe-
matical, medical, physical and
social sciences, from both
government and business. The
meetings provide an oppor-
tunity for these executives to
meet in an educational setting
?free of operational stresses?
to reflect on and discuss
national science policy and
American society. Nationally
prominent academicians and
leaders from public and private
life serve as speakers and
resource persons. Each session
is off the record and encour-
ages an exchange of ideas
drawing on participant knowl-
edge and experience, analysis
of background readings, and
views of the speaker. Confer-
ences will be held on the
following dates:
September 19-24, 1971,
December 12-17, 1971
March 26-31, 1972

The Brookings Institution is a nonprofit
organization devoted to research, education,
and publication in economics, government,
foreign policy, and the social sciences
generally. In its research its role is that of
independent analyst and critic, committed to
publishing its findings for the information of
the public. In its conferences and other
activities, it serves as a bridge between
scholarship and public policy, bringing new
knowledge to the attention of decision makers
and affording scholars a better insight into
policy issues.
The Institution was incorporated in 1927 to
merge the activities of three antecedent
organizations: the Institute for Government
Research, founded in 1916; the Institute of
Economics, established in 1922; and the Robert
Brookings Graduate School of Economics and
Government, organized in 1924. The
consolidated institution was named in honor of
Robert Somers Brookings, a St. Louis business-
man whose leadership shaped the earlier
organizations.
Activities are carried out through three
research programs (Economic Studies, Govern-
mental Studies, and Foreign Policy Studies),
a Social Science Computation Center,
a Publications Program, and the Advanced
Study Program.

Seminars on Business
and Public Policy
Two-day review or "refresher"
seminars limited to senior
government executives who
have attended a Brookings
Conference on Business
Operations provide executives
with an opportunity for further
understanding of many current
aspects of management and the
challenges of the environment
in which business and govern-
ment operate. Key current
topics or problem areas are
selected for off-the-record dis-
cussion, utilizing a reading
program and businessmen as
resource persons.
Separate announcements of
these seminars are sent to past
participants and to sponsoring
agencies and departments.
Seminars on Business and
Public Policy are planned for
October 20-21, 1971 and May
17-18, 1972. The Seminar fee
is $200, and covers tuition,
reading materials, group meals,
and related educational costs,
excluding lodging and travel
to and from the conference
location (to be announced).
Seminars on Selected
Public Policy Issues
Three-day policy seminars are
held for federal executives who
have previously participated in
a Brookings educational pro-
gram. Seminars afford these
executives with opportunities
to update their knowledge of
major public policy issues
through in-depth analyses of
several current issues in eco-
nomic, domestic, and inter-
national policy. Specific topics
for each seminar differ as
national events change the
focus of importance. Discussion
sessions with key government
officials, academicians, and
leaders in private life are
scheduled from Tuesday dinner
through Friday luncheon. Par-
ticipation in each seminar is
limited to 25-30 persons.
Seminar dates are November
2-5, 1971 and May 2-5, 1972.
The seminar fee is $350 and
includes tuition, reading ma-
terials, and related educational
costs, excluding American Plan
hotel costs. Seminars will be
held at residential conference
centers in Maryland or Virginia.
Federal Executive
Fellowships
The Federal Executive
Fellowship Program provides
opportunities for federal
executives to engage in inde-
pendent study and research in
fields related to Brookings
research activities?economics,
government and foreign policy.
Up to ten fellowships may be
awarded annually to senior
men and women in the career
civil service. The length of
each Fellowship is determined
by the candidate, the spon-
soring agency, and Brookings,
based on the nature and scope
of the proposed project. The
Institution provides each Fellow
with office space, local tele-
phone service, limited secre-
tarial assistance, library, dining
room, conference and seminar
facilities, and assistance from
the Brookings professional staff.
The basic purposes of the
program are to increase the
knowledge, proficiency, and
skill of senior civil servants and
to permit them to make a
research contribution in their
field. Federal agencies are
expected to pay the salaries of
executives during the Fellow-
ship period.
