List Server

Content Editor for this page: Howard Schussler

Welcome to the Public Sector Network email list. This is the official listserv for the Government Division of the American

Here are the basic list commands:

The way the list works is - a subscriber sends an email to the list, which is then sent to all subscribers. The list has been used for a few purposes. First, it has been a great way for a single member to connect quickly with a large number of public sector professionals for research and benchmarking. For example, I recently wanted to benchmark how Malcolm Baldrige type quality award criteria were being applied in other organizations. Within a few days I had 20+ responses that were invaluable to my research. Another use has been for conducting some of the division's business and connecting with more of our members. As more of us get involved and participate in the network, the more useful and powerful the network becomes as a tool and the more responsive the Government Division of ASQ can be to member needs. A third use has been for sharing employment opportunities - in particular those positions related to Quality, Organizational Development, and Performance Measurement. We are building a community of public sector professionals who all seek to improve how government works, provides services, and engages our citizen partners in governing our communities. Please join us in this noble endeavor.

Traffic on the list averages about 15-20 messages each month, which is pretty manageable for most of us. The list is moderated, so there is little spam or advertising.
