We are pleased to offer this opportunity for Harry Featherstone, our newest partner and the Publisher of The Public Manager, to introduce this publication to the AACPM membership and encourage member participation in sharing our experiences as public managers.


First launched in 1972, The Public Manager, a not-for-profit quarterly publication, is the only journal of its kind—an opportunity for managers and executives to write and share ideas about critical public sector management issues. Its mission is to encourage professionalism and high performance at all levels of government. Why read The Public Manager? Simple, it provides managers with practical solutions from those who have dealt with the same complex, wide-ranging policy and management issues. Each problem is certainly unique, but sharing real, working advice on broad solutions provides those with similar interests the tools to solve their respective individual problems. Our readership includes a blend of subscribers—domestic and international public sector practitioners at all levels of government, young government professionals, public administration students, applied academia, and the private sector. You can learn more about The Public Manager at our Web site, www.thepublicmanager.org.

Take the opportunity to share your experience with others. As a professional journal, The Public Manager is interested in fostering a forum for the exchange of innovative new concepts, solutions, processes, and ideas that are of use to our readers. Also, because we strongly believe that public service remains among the noblest of callings, we are committed to ensuring that The Public Manager remains a valuable resource for managers. That means working with those who share these objectives to identify relevant issues and expand the dialog on how to deal with the most critical issues facing managers today. If you are interested in sharing your knowledge of practices that work, and those that don’t, to effect immediate, enduring improvements in public management, please consider working with our Editor-in-Chief to develop a manuscript contribution. Visit our Web site at www.thepublicmanager.org to learn more about the journal, review our editorial practices, and contact us with your ideas for a contribution.
