Gonzales Completes Program for Senior Executives at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government

Cambridge, MA - Pete M. Gonzales Jr., CPA, CFE, former Boston Audit Manager for the USPS-Office of Inspector General and former City Auditor for the City of San Antonio, TX, completed the Program for Senior Executives in State and Local Government.

This Executive Education program, offered at the John F. Kennedy School of Government is a three-week course which focuses on the development of conceptual frameworks for addressing policy issues, explores the relationship between citizens and their government, and examines the ethical and professional responsibilities of leadership.

“We are proud of the leaders who attend our Executive Education programs. They are a dedicated group of professionals who are committed to working for the public good across various sectors of society,” said Harvard Kennedy School Dean David Ellwood. “We are confident that they will help create effective solutions to public challenges and inspire others with their ideas and their talent."

“This class of participants was chosen through a highly competitive application process,” said Linda Kaboolian, Program Faculty Chair. “They were a tremendously diverse group who brought a wide range of geographic, political, and cross-sector perspectives to the class. They experienced an intensive and challenging program that encouraged them to stretch beyond the boundaries of their everyday work environments and formed a network of lasting friendships and professional connections.”

The John F. Kennedy School of Government is the graduate professional school at Harvard University dedicated to training people for excellence in government and public service. Harvard Kennedy School has emerged as a forum for passionate debate about the past, present, and future of public service and governance.

Executive Education programs at the Kennedy School serve senior public officials, nonprofit executives, and corporate officers whose work directly affects the lives of their fellow citizens. Our mission is to advance the public interest by training skilled, enlightened leaders to solve public problems using best practices, world-class scholarship, and practical management techniques.
