LongDescriptionThe Executive Core Qualifications (ECQs) describe the leadership skills needed to succeed in career and non-career senior executive positions in the federal government. ECQs also reinforce the concept of a senior executive corporate culture. This concept holds that government organizations need executives who can provide strategic leadership and whose commitment to public policy and administration transcends their commitment to a specific agency mission or individual profession. Executives with a 'corporate' view of government share values that are grounded in the fundamental government ideals of the Constitution: they embrace the dynamics of American democracy, an approach to governance that provides a continuing vehicle for change.
