The CGI Initiative for Collaborative Government is proud to have six distinguished former federal executives serving as CGI Initiative Fellows. These expert, passionate and committed leaders in the government community are active advisors to the CGI Initiative on its research agenda and contribute their insights and experience by writing and speaking on emerging government and healthcare challenges.
Our Fellows are also affiliate professors of George Mason University’s Department of Public and International Affairs, where they share their expertise, observations and advice with the public sector leaders of tomorrow.
As CGI Initiative Fellows and GMU Affiliate Professors, these executives produce analyses, lead executive forums and provide thought leadership on key issues including: open government, cybersecurity, mobility, health IT, cloud computing, leading complex projects, analytics, strategic budgeting and next-generation financial management.
