Responsibilities
The Board of Editors plays a significant role in shaping the editorial direction and continuously improving the overall content quality for The Public Manager.
In consultation with the Publisher, Editor and Editor At Large, the Board is instrumental in ensuring that the journal remains focused on the key issues facing public managers today and remembers the challenges they have faced in previous times.

- Planning: creating a long-range vision for the journal’s content; developing a comprehensive editorial calendar that is updated annually; advising on publication strategies and media.
- Content: identifying topical and timely areas of interest and professional development to journal readers; identifying and referring potential contributors for journal articles; referring potential articles, reports, and research.
- Outreach: developing and engaging in new ways to increase The Public Manager’s visibility and image to a variety of constituencies and markets; moderating or participating in occasional forums and seminars; speaking at educational sessions sponsored between The Public Manager and its affiliates.
