C ix years ago I determined that my Administration should avail
V itself of the extraordinary talents and experience of America's
business leaders to the greatest extent possible.
One of the most effective vehicles for doing this has been the
President's Commission on Executive Exchange. The Commission
has made tireless efforts to incorporate outstanding business execu-
tives into the decision-making processes of the Federal government
and to provide senior government executives the opportunity to
benefit from fresh insights by working in private business. This pro-
gram has more than met my expectations, and it has resulted in a
dramatic increase in understanding and cooperation between the
public and private sectors.
_ I am proud to reaffirm this Administration's dedication to the conti-
nuing activities of the President's Commission on Executive Ex-
change; and I commend the corporations, agencies, Commission-
ers, and Executives on their commitment to the success of this vital
program.

The Mission
Fr he President's Commission
I. on Executive Exchange
bridges the gap between American
business and the Federal govern-
ment. The effect is the stimulation
of new ideas and techniques which
result in better management of
Federal ga.ernment agencies and
greater cooperation with business,
thus developing a cadre of exper-
ienced executives who will contri-
bute substance and judgment in
their policy-making assignments.
Presidential Exchange
Executives
-E) residential Exchange Execu-
r tives are accomplished men
and women who have attained pol-
icy making positions within their
organizations. They are talented
individuals with proven records of
success and significant career ach-
ievements.
The range of executives partici-
pating in the President's Commis-
sion on Executive Exchange spans
the full spectrum of professional
experience. The executives' exten-
sive experience includes financial
analysis, law, marketing, econom-
ics, operations research, general
management, strategic planning,
engineering, science, high tech-
nology, long-range Planning, or
international business.
Presidential Exchange Execu-
tives are America's present and
future leaders. They improve un-
derstanding and cooperation be-
tween business and government
while solving problems common
to both sectors. Their commitment
to excellence is steadfast and they
offer our camtry a great resource.
The Goal
In he goal of the President's
I Commission on Executive
Exchange is:
At an overall level, providing a
forum for the effective interchange
of ideas, innovations and under-
standing between business and
government, establishing a vehicle
for cooperation and communica-
tion between the two.
At a corporate or agency level,
providing specific opportunities to
gain the benefits of differing back-
grounds and experience in ad-
dressing the questions and issues
that face business and the Federal
government.
At an individual level, provid-
ing a new dimension to the execu-
tives' experience, enriching and
better preparing them to contri-
bute further throughout their
careers.
New Corporate
Option
ir he President's Commission
on Executive Exchange has
recently implemented an addition-
al program which enables the
Commission to attract key, senior
business executives. On Septum-
her 30th, 1986, the Congress
unanimously passed and the Pres-
ident signed into law P.L. 99-424,
legislation which enables a corpo-
ration the option of continuing to
pay an executive's salary while
participating in the President's
Commission on Executive Ex-
change. This is not a require-
ment for participation, however,
many corporations have elected to
take advantage of this opportunity.
Executives participating in this
special program remain subject to
conflict of interest provisions and
all other laws and regulations gov-
erning Federal employees, except
for those pertaining to compensa-
tion and related benefits.
Nomination, Selection
and Placement
orporate nominations for the
President's Commission on
Executive Exchange are expected
by June 1. Federal government
nominations are expected by April
1. Critical assignments are filled
on a continuous basis according to
the request of the Cabinet Secre-
tary.
All executives must return to
their sponsoring corporation or
agency at the conclusion of their
one year assignment and remain in
their employmert for a specified
amount of time. Corporate execu-
tives must sign a contract commit-
ting them to return to their corpo-
ration and remain in their employ-
ment for at least one year after the
conclusion of their assignment.
Federal government executives
must sign a contract committing
them to return to the Federal
government agency and remain in
their employment for at least three
years after the conclusion of their
assignment.

?
Upon completion of in-depth
selection interviews and accep-
tance into the program, the Exec-
live Director negotiates suitable
assignments which will maximize
the executives' backgrounds, re-
sources and talents. Corporate ex-
ecutives are interviewed 1:Iry Feder-
al government agencies and Feder-
al government executives are in-
terviewed by selected corpora-
tions. After further negotiations,
executives are placed in mutually
agreed upon positions with as-
signments normally beginning in
October. The Commission moni-
tors the assignments and counsels
the executives throughout the year,
guaranteeing the experience bene-
fits all concerned.
The President's Commission
on Executive Exchange adheres to
the principles of equal employ-
ment opportunity. Corporations
and Federal government agencies
are therefore encouraged to nomi-
nate only their most experienced
and talented men, women and mi-
norities for this program.
Final selection of Presidential
Exchange Executives is at the
discretion of the President's Com-
mission on Executive Exchange
and is based on Commission es-
tablished criteria and the availabil-
ity of appropriate assignments.
Legal and
Ethical Conduct
n residential Exchange Execu-
r- lives must sustain the highest
standards of performance and en-
sure open and honest policies free
from conflict of interest.
The President's Commission
on Executive Exchange adheres to
the strictest standards of legal and
ethical conduct. Presidential Ex-
change Executives are expected to
carry out their Exchange assign-
ments in a manner befitting the
responsibility entrusted to them,
and in keeping with high moral,
legal and ethical standards not on-
ly in their professional but also
their personal lives.
Commission Standards
All Presidential Exchange Ex-
ecutives are required to:
Serve the United States govern-
ment with honor;
Maintain the high quality of
Commission standards as
specified in the Commission
Guidelines booklet;
Conduct themselves during and
after work hours in such a
manner as not to reflect ad-
versely upon the President's
Commission on Executive
Exchange, the corporation, or
the Federal government;
Achieve a superior perform-
ance level;
Familiarize themselves with the
standards of conduct of the
organization to which they are
assigned.
Corporate executives must sign
a contract committing them to
return to their corporation and
remain in their employment for at
least one year after the conclusion
of their assignment.
Federal government executives
must sign a contract committing
them to return to their Federal
government agency and remain in
their employment for at least
three years after the conclusion of
their assignment.
Periodic evaluations will be
submitted to the corporations and
Federal government agencies re-
garding their executive's profes-
sional and personal performance
as a participant in the program. In
all circumstances, including the
International Seminar and all
other conferences held outside of
Washington, D.0 . executives are
required to conduct themselves so
as to exemplify the highest stan-
dards of integrity.
Presidential Exchange Execu-
tives involved in any infraction of
applicable laws, standards of ethi-
cal conduct, or unproper personal
or public conduct will be subject
to disciplinary action, including
termination from the President's
Commission on Executive
Exchange.

Conferences
and Seminars
While a participant in the
President's Commission on
Executive Exchange the one-year
assignment maintains top priority.
Conferences and seminars are a
significant part of the executive's
experience. The subject matter
covered during the year includes
international and domestic issues,
business and government opera-
tions. All travel and program costs
for the International Seminar are
paid for ty funds collected from
the private sector.
Commission regulations prohi-
bit spouses or friends from partic-
ipating in Commission sponsored
conferences and seminars or from
accompanying or meeting with ex-
ecutives at anytime during Com-
mission sponsored travel.
The Public Policy Seminar
For a week in October, Pres-
idential Exchange Executives
meet with key White House offi-
cials, Cabinet Officers, Agency
Heads. Members of Congress,
business leaders and prominent
academics. Discussions cover a
wide range of government and
business issues, focusing primar-
ily on public policy and govern-
ment regulation.
The Conference on Business
and Government
Each winter, Federal govern-
ment and corporate executives
meet for a week at one of the na-
tion's leading academic institu-
tions for a studied examination of
business, government and the rela-
tionship between the two.
For the past three years, the
conference was held at Harvard
University. Following an intensive
two-day computer based manage-
ment simulation exercise, Federal
government executives were join-
ed by their corporate counterparts
for a series of lectures and discus-
sions with top professors from the
Harvard Business School. They
examined factors which affect cor-
porate decision-making and be-
havior.
The conference concluded with
two days of case studies and dis-
cussions at the Kennedy School of
Government, during which time
various aspects of the relationship
between business and government
were explored.
Washington Meetings kr
Business Executives
Approximately once a week,
informal, off-the-record meetings
are held with national leaders.
These have included Supreme
Court Justices, Cardiet Secretar-
ies, US. Senators and Representa-
tives, senior White House offi-
cials, Agency Heads, academics,
journalists, and lobbyists. The ses-
sions provide corporate executives
with the backgmtmd behind the
headlines and current develop-
ments, as well as insights on the
way Washington functions.
The International Seminar
This seminar represents an op-
portunity for the executives to exa-
mine and discuss foreign policy
issues firsthand.
The highlight of the 1986 Inter-
national Seminar was the privilege
and honor of an audience with His
Holiness Pope John Paul II. An-
other outstanding opportunity was
the meeting with His Majesty
King Juan Carlos I of Spain.
The executives also attended
_ briefings at the headquarters of the
North Atlantic Treaty Organiza-
&en (NATO) in Brussels, Belgium;
meetings with British, French,
and Italian government and busi-
ness leaders, and traveled for the
first time to Yugoslavia.
Executives return from the In-
ternational Seminar with a better
understanding of the effects of
trade negotiations; defense and se-
curity arrangements and their im-
pact on economic matters; the in-
ternal economic structure of other
countries; the international mone-
tary situation and its effect on in-
vestment trade; and the internal
pressures which affect both do-
mestic and multi-national corpora-
tions.
Note: All travel and program
costs fix the International Sem-
inar are paid for by Ands col-
lected frvm the private sector.

within a government agency is
contingent upon completion of this
investigation and review of the
findings by the President's Com-
mission on Executive Exchange.
Corporations should nominate
only individuals with exemplary
backgrounds and records. Nomi-
nees are advised that derogatory
information uncovered in the
background investigation could
prove to be detrimental to their
professional standing. The Pres-
ident's Commission on Executive
Exchange reserves the right to re-
ject candidates based on the re-
sults of the investigations.
Corporate Assignments Ir
Federal Government
Executives
Chief Executive Officers of
corporations are contacted by the
Executive Director of the Pres-
ident's Commission on Executive
Exchange seeking assignments for
Federal government executives.
Corporations planning to offer a
Federal government executive Slk
an assignment should identify a
responsible, challenging position
which by its very nature weld best
suit an individual with limited bus-
iness experience.
In order to insure absolute avoi-
dance of conflict of interest or the
appearance thereof, the corpora-
tion's General Counsel must re-
view the Federal government exec-
utive's background, prior to the
Federal government executive's
assignment. The corporation must
notify the President's Commission
on Executive Exchange that no
conflict of interest exists. The
Commission continues to counsel
Federal government executives re-
garding ethical conduct and avoid-
ance of conflict of interest
throughout the year.
In keeping with the goal of the
President's Commission on Exec-
utive Exchange, and in compli-
ance with Federal rules and regu-
lations, and Commission restlic-
lions, the corporation must not ex-
tend an offer of permanent em-
ployment to the government exec-
utive during preliminary inter-
views, anytime during the one
year assignment, or upon comple-
tion of the assignment. This re-
striction against offers of perma-
nent employment continues for at
least three years after the date of
return to the Federal government.

Federal Government
Assignments for Corporate
Executives
Cabinet Officers and Agency
Heads meet with the Executive
Director of the President's Com-
mission on Executive Exchange to
designate assignments that would
be most challenging for Presiden-
tial Exchange Executives. These
assignments are to positions as
assistants to Cabinet Officers,
Agency Heads, Under Secretaries
or Assistant Secretaries. Presiden-
tial Exchange Executives normally
hold positions in the Senior Exec-
utive Service during their assign-
ment in the Federal government.
Over the past few years, the Corn-
mission has been able to obtain the
position of Acting Deputy Assis-
tant Secretary for executives
whose outstanding achievements
have been recognized in their res-
pective agencies.
To insure absolute avoidance of
conflict of interest or the appear-
ance thereof, both the agency to
which the corporate executive is
assigned and the executive must
adhere to all Federal conflict of in-
terest laws. The agency's Ethics
Counsel reviews the corporate ex-
ecutive's background and the for-
mal position responsibilities in or-
der to determine that no conflict of
interest exists. It is the agency's
responsibility to notify the Ethics
Officer of the President's Com-
mission on Executive Exchange of
this determination. If the corpo-
rate executive is reassigned to new
responsibilities during the year,
the Federal government agency
must obtain prior approval from
the Executive Director. The Exec-
utive Director and the Ethics Of-
ficer continue to counsel corporate
executives regarding ethical con-
duct and awoidance of conflict of
interest throughout the year.
In keeping with the goal of the
President's Commission on Exec-
utive Exchange, and in compli-
ance with Federal rules and regu-
lations, the agency to which the
corporate executive is assigned
must not attend an offer of per-
manent employment to the execu-
tive during preliminary inter-
views, anytime during the one
year assignment, or upon comple-
tion of the assignment. This res-
triction against offers of perma-
nent employment continues for at
least three years after the date of
the corporate executive's return to
the corporation.

Critical Assignments For
Corporate Executives
abinet Officers are encouraged to request assistance from the Executive Director of the President's Com-
l.. mission on Executive Exchange in recruiting highly specialized and experienced executives to fill critical
needs within their organizations. The Executive Director will respond to these requests on a continuous basis
throughout the year.
Corporate executives chosen for critical assignments must possess specific expertise to meet a specialized
need within a government agency. Such executives are chosen based on their wealth of experience and have
reached senior ranks within their corporations.
Since these critical assignments may occur at any time during the year, they do not necessarily coincide with
? the regular cycle of the President's Commission on Executive Exchange. However, executives must return to
their corporations one year after beginning their assignments and remain with their corporation for a least we
year after completing their assignment with the President's Commission on Executive Exchange. The same
conflict of interest requirements apply to these critical positions.
International Embassy Assignments
For Corporate Executives
r-r he President's Commission on Executive Exchange seeks corporate executives with extensive intemation-
I al business experience for assignments in United States Embassies abroad as Assistants to the Ambassa-
dor. Corporate executives assigned internationally perform a variety of functions including assisting the Am-
bassador with specific problems related to the region, initiating and developing business opportunities for Uni-
ted States corporations, and addressing the myriad of problems and opportunities that face an overseas investor.
These corporate executives lend their expertise in relevant international business trends to specialized prob-
lems which differ from country to country. In addition, they bring a fresh perspective to ongoing problems and
creative analysis of current issues.
For International Assignments, the Commission seeks corporate executives with:
Experience in finance, marketing, engineering, law or business administration;
At least five years experience in an area dealing with aspects of international business;
Ability to interact diplomatically with officials at the highest levels of the United States and foreign
governments;
Knowledge of the language of the country to which the executive is assigned is an asset.
These international assignments may be up to 24 months in duration and the executives must return to their
corporations at the completion of their assignments. Executives must adhere strictly to rules and regulations re-
garding conflict of interest and all other Commission standards.
The Executive Director of the President's Commission on Executive Exchange continues to negotiate with
United States Ambassadors and the State Department for additional ovemeas assignments. The President's
Commission on Executive Exchange encourages corporations to consider participation in International Embas-
sy assignments as well as assignments in Washington. D.C.

Serving in the Office of the
Chairman of Republic-
bank Dallas enabled me
to significantly improve
my knowledge of international
trade finance and to better appre-
ciate the problems confronting
U.S. exporters in the increasingly
competitive world market. Major
projects I completed were: a do-
mestic and international market-
ing program for agri-business
financial services; a Loan Offi-
cer's guide to U.S. export pro-
grams; a feasibility study on agri-
cultural trade finance; and a trade
financing program and marketing
strategy for Republicbank.
My experience at Republicbank
and my participation in the Com-
mission's seminars have enabled
me to more effectively manage the
international activities of the U.S.
Agricultural Counselors and At-
taches assigned in 70 America,:
Embassies. Hopefully, I contrib-
uted to greater involvement
Republicbank in the financing of
U.S. exports and enhanced Repub-
licbank officials' understanding of
international issues and the pol-
icy making process.

participation in the
President's Commission
on Executive Exchange
irsan-extrentely en- -
lightening and rewarding career
development experience for me.
Assigned for a year as Assistant
to the Senior Vice President of
United Parcel Service, Inc., I
gained tremendous insights into
private sector business manage-
ment and philosophies, concepts
and practices. In addition,
through the Commission spon-
sored seminars and conferences, I
obtained a wealth of useful infor-
mation as well as a much greater
awareness of global events and is-
sues.
_
More recently I have found that
many of the "lessons learned"
during my assignment are directly
applicable in the public sector. I
am much better equipped to per-
form effectively as a Federal man-
ager, and I sincerely believe that
both the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission and United Parcel
Service can cite tangible benefits
which were a direct result of the
exchange experience. This program
proved to be advantageous to all
parties involved.

Dwing my assignment
with the President's
Commission on Execu-
tive Exchange, I devel-
oped a strategic business plan for
the Oilwell Division of U.S. Steel
Corporation. I originated efforts
to open a new line of business for
their manufacturing plants with
the U.S. government, particularly
the Department of Defense, to uti-
lize plant capacity available be-
cause of a decline in traditional
production. My familiarity with
government procedures, processes,
personnel and organizational deci-
sion-making greatly accelerated
-the effort and contributed-to its
success.
I also had the opportunity to
address numerous local groups on
U.S. government programs and ac-
tivities, particularly the Depart-
ment of State and the role of the
U.S. Foreign Service.
This helped establish a fuller
understanding of the foreign pol-
icy process and, I hope, a greater
appreciation of public servants.
Above all, my participation en-
abled me to return to my agency
with new background and train-
ing in the application of strategic
planning concepts to the manage-
ment of public resources.

a group of mathematicians and
economists developing a chemical
business plan. The experience was
very satisfying, as my government
background was directly applica-

meet changing market conditions.
I worked with managers from
every level and function within
the organization and was in daily
contact with individuals who
were creating and managing
change in a coordinated, incre-
mental manner. My responsibili-

preparation and review, the devel-
opment and implementation of a
business change process known as
Competitive Benchmarking, coor-
dination and supplirt of critical
training activities, and full
participation in on-going program

I returned to a position in the
Postal Service's Planning Depart-
ment to develop long range plans
and the processes to support
them. This led to a concentration
in marketing in the Postal Ser-

newly created marketing organi-
zation. The Executive Exchange
experience was instrumental in
this move, and I am a stronger

of it.

My assignment with

clearly one of the
most wiring and
rewarding experiences in my

new profession came new respon-
sibilities including preparation of
annual business plans, analyzing

Upon reflection, I concluded

Tdhe charter of the Presi-
ent's Commission on
Executive Exchange is to
promote a greater under-
standing between the Federal gov-
ernment and business, thus creat-
ing a lasting partnership between
the two sectors. To share talent
and expertise, new perspectives
and advances in management, so
that business and government
may each be better equipped to
serve society . . . that is the goal
of the President's Commission on
Executive Exchange. Participants
return to their own sector with a
new, intimate grasp of the meth-
ods and decision-making proc-
esses of the other side.
Corporate executives are nomi-
nated to participate in the Presi-
dent's Commission on Executive
Exchange by their Chief Executive
Officer and Federal government
executives are nominated by their
Cabinet Secretary or Agency
Head. Following extensive inter-
views and acceptance into the
LCT
negotiates appropriate govern-
ment assignments for corporate
executives. The Commission also
negotiates corporate assignments
for Federal executives. Both cor-
porate and Federal executives
must return to their nominating
organization at the conclusion of
the one year assignment.
Presidential Exchange Execu-
tives are expected to sustain the
highest standards of performance
and ensure open and honest poli-
cies free from conflict of interest.
Avoidance of conflict of interest
-or the appearance thereof is of
the utmost importance to the
Commission.
Critical assignments in Wash-
ington, DC represent an addi-
tional opportunity for participa-
tion by corporate executives.
These critical assignments are
filled at the specific request of a
Cabinet Officer. Also, in the last
few years the Commission has in-
itiated an International Program,
providing key assignments tor
corporate executives as Assistants
to Antbassadors in U.S. Embas-
sies overseas.
New legislation provides the
nominating corporation flit (1)-
tion of maintaining the execu-
tive's salary while he or she is as-
signed to the Federal government.
This legislation applies only to a
limited number of executives. Un-
der most circumstances, govern-
ment agencies assume the salary
responsibilities for corporate exec-
utives' assignments. Corporations
to which Federal executives are
assigned pay the Federal execu-
tive's salary. The Commission
is respcmsibk for all salary
negotiations.
