Evaluating Transition Efforts and the Role of Civil Servants

‘Tis the season – and not just for the holidays! The 2024 transition is in full swing, so for this episode of Transition Lab, we invited our CEO and president Max Stier to join us for a discussion of President-elect Donald Trump’s (second!) presidential transition and how it stacks up against those of the last few administrations.  

Max Stier has served as president and CEO of the Partnership for Public Service since its creation in 2001. Under his leadership, the Partnership grew from a small startup to the only nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated exclusively to building a better government and a stronger democracy. Before partnering with Sam Heyman to create our organization, Max’s career highlights include time spent in all three branches of government, including on Capitol Hill, in the Supreme Court, and in the departments of Justice and Housing and Urban Development.  

Tune in to new episodes after the holidays!
