Nick Charney: A Personal Story of Public Service Renewal

 

About The Presentation

“This presentation chronicles my personal story of renewal, explaining the challenges I faced when I entered, what I gave up to join the public service, how I almost left after my first year, and what prompted my decision to get more involved in the renewal of my organization and in public service renewal more generally.  It ends with an inspiring call to action, because collectively we can do so much more than I ever could.”
