Good Government A political scientist by academic training, Alex has worked with governments
at all levels in the United States, Canada, and abroad, as an adviser
in a wide variety of public policy and management issues. He has directed
a graduate program in public administration as well as a multidisciplinary
applied research program in public policy. He has served on the National
Council of the American Society for Public Administration and was one
of the initial faculty evaluators for the Innovations in American Government
Awards Program at the John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University.
Alex believes strongly that good government is about partnership not partisanship
and he draws on his experience to champion the cause for excellence in
public affairs.
Innovative Soul Learning Organizations
Dr. Alex Pattakos is well known for his high energy and dynamic
approach to engaging participants and effecting change in his three areas
of focus:
1. Creating "Good" Government
2. Tapping into the "Innovative Soul"
3. Building Learning Organizations
As
an author, speaker, facilitator, and consultant, he brings his unique perspective
and experience base to help clients re-energize and identify new approaches
to planning their futures. His keynote fees range from free to $20,000.
Alex is the past President of Renaissance Business Associates, a nonprofit,
international association of people committed to integrity in business
and elevating the human spirit in the workplace. He is a contributor to
the book, Rediscovering the Soul of Business: A Renaissance of Values,
as well as other publications dealing with spirituality at work. His work
to enhance the creative spirit in organizations has been featured in Success,
Personnel Journal, Training, and Investors' Business Daily magazines.
He believes that innovation, at its core, can be viewed-perhaps radically--as
a spiritual phenomenon.
Alex has over twenty-five years experience with "community building" in
a wide variety of settings-business, government, and nonprofit. He is
a pioneer in the innovative use of technology to enhance individual and
group learning and is credited by the World Futures Society as the inventor
of the "Electronic Visiting Professor" when the Information Highway was
still a dirt road. His work in this area has been shared internationally
through the Voice of America and his perspective on "creative learning"
can be found most recently in the book, Managing in Organizations that
Learn. Building a "learning organization," in Alex's view, requires a
whole person/whole mind/whole spirit process that draws upon both science
and intuition.
