Introduction
GCC's Strategy for Government is the "Real Solution" for changing the way Washington works – – a solution that will finally enable the government to work effectively on behalf of the American People.
It is a Strategy designed especially for application where it will provide the broadest and most effective impact, which is in the Executive and Legislative Branches of Government:
It is in those Branches of Government that elected officials and their appointed staff "steer" the government to support the political agenda and policies of the Administration that happens to be in office – – agenda and policies that, today and for a number of years, have too often not been in line with what is best for Americans and the Nation.
This represents a Serious Leadership Failure on the part of those in Washington, especially in the Executive and Legislative Branches who, too often, place a higher value on their partisan political agenda and reelection, rather than on the American People and the Nation!
GCC's
Strategy
for
Government
neutralizes the detrimental
influence and impact
that
"politics" and "elections"
impose on those who serve
in government!
It is an
Authentic Leadership Strategy
WITH INTEGRITY
that,
among its many values,
will finally enable the delivery of
the best,
most honest
and
open government possible
on behalf of the
American people
and
the Nation,
Without Ever
Compromising
The Nation's
National Defense and Security - -
Which,
Is
the
Government's
HIGHEST PRIORITY!
|
GCC's Strategy for Government first and foremost removes two significant obstacles that prevent elected officials from working in concert on behalf of the American People.
Those obstacles are "PARTISAN POLITICS" and the very "DAMAGING CULTURE" in which the people work and conduct their daily lives . . . a culture that reflects the "corruption of values and the decline in the levels of integrity in society more generally". . . a destructive culture about which the Government and too many people, unfortunately, either have very little, if any, concern or, more seriously, have chosen to follow themselves!
Neither "Partisan Politics" nor that very "Damaging Culture" should play a part in "how Leaders in the White House and Representatives in Congress, and their Staffs "operate and arrive at decisions on behalf of America and the People"! Nor should the "Corrupt Culture" -- as it too often is -- be the guide for The People!
Integrity and Personal Responsibility apply, not only to Government Officials, but also to the People at large!
GCC's "Leadership Strategy for Government" addresses those two obstacles in this way:
-
It is a
STRATEGY
designed by
GCC
To
OBJECTIVELY
APPLY
SOUND
AND
AUTHENTIC
LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES,
that,
among other qualities,
include
BUSINESS SENSE,
SIMPLICITY,
ORGANIZATION EFFECTIVENESS,
and
INTEGRITY
in
CONDUCTING
THE
BUSINESS
OF
GOVERNMENT!
The end result would be
a
Government
in which
the
Partisan Politics
and
the
Damaging
Culture - -
the root of much
of the
demagoguery, gridlock,
and
untold waste - -
will gradually, but diligently, be replaced with
a
mode of operating
in which
elected officials
in both the
Executive and Legislative Branches
of
Government
stay focused
on their
Primary Mission
"To
Represent
The American People
and
The Nation"
Whom They Were Elected To Serve . . .
WHILE
AT THE SAME TIME,
By The Government's
OWN EXAMPLE,
AFFIRM AND REAFFIRM
AS THE
NATION'S POLICY:
"INTEGRITY
IN GOVERNMENT
AND
HONORABLE VALUES,
AND
PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY
IN THE CULTURE OF AMERICA
AND
THUS
IN THE
MORAL FABRIC OF THE NATION!"
__ __ __
GCC
BELIEVES THAT
THERE ARE A SUFFICIENT NUMBER OF RESPONSIBLE AMERICAN PEOPLE
TO
REVERSE THE
DESTRUCTIVE TIDE
AND
BRING ABOUT
A
NEW WAVE
OF
INTEGRITY, EXCELLENCE, AND STRENGTH
AS A
PEOPLE AND A NATION,
WHILE
SETTING A POSITIVE EXAMPLE
TO THE REST OF THE WORLD!
|
GCC's Strategy for Government provides the first real opportunity that will enable a President and a Congress to finally adopt -- on a Non-Partisan basis -- a cooperative solution for finally achieving "True CHANGE In The Way Washington Works", while applying the solutions that will go a long way towards improving the moral fabric of America and her People!
THE BOTTOM LINE, THEN, IS THIS:
GCC's
Strategy
for
Government
is a
SOLUTION
That Finally Provides
a
more
Effective, Economical, Efficient, Transparent, Accountable,
and
Ethical
Way
of
Carrying Out The Work Of Government,
Not For Its Own Sake,
But On Behalf
of the
American People,
and
the
Nation!
It Is a
Strategy
That
Finally
"Gets to the Core of the Problem"
to
Achieve The Unachievable,
In
GOVERNMENT,
for the
American People
and the
Nation,
While
At The Same Time:
REESTABLISHING AMERICA
AS A
NATION
OF
INTEGRITY, TRUST, RESOLUTION,
AND
ENDURING
STRENGTH
FOR ITSELF
AND
AS AN EXAMPLE
TO
THE REST OF THE WORLD!

GCC's STRATEGY FOR GOVERNMENT
This Strategy provides a unique opportunity to finally "change the way Washington works"!
It is a choice between:
- The "STATUS QUO" that represents the familiar political platforms and empty promises, from election-to-election, and administration-to-administration that, in the end, and with few exceptions, deliver little of substance to the American People while the ineffective "business-as-usual" remains the mode of operating, while the cost of Government -- irresponsibly and unnecessarily -- continues to rise!
- "REAL CHANGE", as described on this Website, that, first and foremost, requires True Leadership With Integrity to bring about, a "Government that works effectively and efficiently on behalf of the American People and the Nation!"
Following is but one example of ineffectiveness related to Presidential Debates, a topic that probably more Americans than ever before viewed during the 2015 - 2016 Primary Debates/Elections:
The TV Presidential Debates often provide the viewing audience their first opportunity to be introduced to the candidates and to view how they perform in a question and answer format: e.g., "What would you do about this or that?" or "How would you handle this?", etc.
While those debates give an indication of the candidate's "speaking skills" and, perhaps, "quick thinking skills", they do NOT necessarily provide an indication of the person's "Leadership Skills" that are so extremely vital for a President of the United States to possess, especially if anything of substance and importance is to be accomplished!
A candidate's "Past Experience and History As A Proven Successful Leader" is a far more reliable indicator - - NOT the person's speaking skills or charisma, as desirable as those traits may also be.
|
The bottom line concerning the TV Debates, that GCC discusses in the example given above is this:
While the Presidential Debates serve some useful purpose, their limited value should be noted, particularly having to do with the failure to identify a candidate's "True Leadership Skills" that represent the most vital requirement of a ANY Leader, especially a candidate seeking the office of President of the United States!
Only
When
Presidential Candidates
and the
Electorate
Are Made Aware Of And Understand,
The
Importance
of
"True Leadership in a President",
Particularly
"True Leadership With Integrity"
which,
In
GCC's STRATEGY,
Transcends The
"Usual Party Politics And Passions",
Then,
And Only Then,
Can
Responsible and Objective
Voting Decisions
Be Made
by an
INFORMED ELECTORATE . . .
Voting Decisions
That Should Result in the
Election of a President
Who Is Fully Capable
of
LEADING WITH INTEGRITY
and
Reforming Government
by
Changing
the
Ineffective and Costly
Way That Washington Works,
Thereby
Truly Representing
the
Best Interests
of the
People And The Nation!
Voting Decisions
Should Be Based
On:
The
Candidate's
Honorable and Effective
Leadership Skills;
How That Candidate
Would
KEEP AMERICA SAFE
FROM BOTH
INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL
Threats And Forces,
Applying Strong, Effective
Defensive And Offensive
Measures;
How That Candidate
Would
Apply
An
Effective
Economic Policy
That Would
For Example:
Introduce Responsible Government Budget And Spending Requirements,
Streamline The Government Organization Itself For
Optimal
Efficiency And Effectiveness,
Simplify The Tax System,
Increase Private Sector Employment Opportunities; e.g., Infrastructure Projects, Bringing Manufacturing Back to America; etc.
Employ Needed Regulations
That Would Protect
The People From
Harmful
Products and Services.
UNFORTUNATELY, HOWEVER,
VOTING DECISIONS
IN AMERICA
ARE TOO OFTEN
BASED ON
POLITICS
REPRESENTED BY
A
Highly Questionable
And
Complex
Politicized System
Of
Primaries, Caucuses, Delegates,
Campaigns, And Conventions
That Represent A
Collection Of Complicated Disparate Systems
Which,
Add To The Turmoil Of The
Election Process,
And
TYPICAL OF
GOVERNMENT INEFFICIENCIES AND WASTE!
________________
|
Bringing about REAL CHANGE required for an effective Government is both a challenge and an opportunity that U.S. Presidents and the Congress have a responsibility to successfully achieve.
Because of the Lack Of True Leadership With Integrity, the Government, at all levels, continues to become less productive, and more expensive, wasteful, irresponsible, and increasingly devoid of honorable character and values that, in the past, have made this country great, - - while, at the same time, taxpayers are expected to continue footing the enormous, and still growing, Irresponsible spending, to say nothing of America's declining reputation in the World Community!
There are Two Fundamental Principles on which "GCC's Leadership Strategy For Government" is based -- a Strategy that will finally "change the way Washington works":
First Of Two Principles:
Replace The
Typical Longstanding And Counterproductive
"Politics-As-Usual Approach"
That Drives What
Actually Gets Accomplished
(Or, More Aptly,
FAILS
To Get Accomplished)
In Washington . . .
Replacing That With
"True Leadership With Integrity", As Described By
GCC
On This Website!
|
That Principle would begin the process of eliminating, the "partisan political component" that, all too often, dictates "what is best for the People and the Nation".
It is that very "partisan political component" that is counter-productive and detrimental, in many respects, and yet with the support of an equally partisan Electorate - - the People - - has long been the mode of operating, both on the part of the Government and on the part of the People.
Therefore:
- Politicians In The Two Political Branches Of Government, who are accustomed to the usual practice of "Partisan Politics", will NOT be particularly interested in changing their mode of operating without some firm convincing by a True Leader in the Executive Branch, and
- PEOPLE IN THE ELECTORATE, who are accustomed to basing their voting decisions principally on "Their Political And Ideological Inclinations" will NOT be particularly interested in changing their mode of operating unless a True Leader Is In Charge Especially In The Executive Branch but also in the Two Houses of Congress!
If A
President
Were To Lead The Government In A Non-Partisan Way, Using
"True Leadership With Integrity"
To Work More Effectively, Efficiently, Economically, Ethically, And Non-Politically
On Behalf Of The
American People and The Nation,
SUCH A PRESIDENT
COULD THEN BE
MOST EFFECTIVE
IN
URGING AND CONVINCING
CONGRESSIONAL LEADERS
AND
OTHER MEMBERS OF CONGRESS
TO DO THE SAME!
|
In short, a "Non-Partisan President" with the Leadership Skills and Integrity as described throughout this website - - together with the support of a better informed, non-political American Voter - - will, finally be able to Succeed In Making The Above A Reality!
Because Of The Government's
Typical, Long-Standing
"Political, Partisan Mode Of Operating"
Of The Past,
GCC Would Also Recommend That A President, From Time-To-Time,
Reassure Americans Of The
PRESIDENT'S
"COMMITTMENT TO CHANGE"
,
Not Only By What The
President And/Or The Administration
"State,"
But Also, And More Importantly,
By The
"Very Decisions They Make"
And The
"Actions They Take"!
|
Second Of Two Principles:
Based On This
RENEWED,
True Leadership Strategy,
And
Non-Partisan
Mode of Operating,
Recommended By GCC,
The President Would Be Well Equipped to Motivate Those In Congress To Also Conduct Their Work In The Most Effective, Non-Political Way Possible So That The Nation Can Finally Move Forward With,
"Changing The Way Washington Works"
For The Benefit Of
The People
And
The Nation!
|
Because Of The
"Business-As-Usual" Culture So Deep-Seated In Government, And
In Place
From The Earliest History of
This Nation . . .
And
Of Which
Our Political Leaders And Representatives Are The Very Embodiment
AND THUS HAVE LITTLE INTEREST
IN
CHANGING,
Congress And The President Need To Be "Highly
Motivated" And Even "Pressured",
By Responsible American Voters,
Into
"Changing The Way Washington Works".
The Only Likely Way That This REFORM
Can Take Hold And Move Forward
Is for Responsible Voters To
PUBLICLY
"Place On Notice":
FIRST,
The
President,
As Well As Others Who Would Seek
That Position
And,
SECOND
The
Leaders And
Members Of Congress . . .
Thereby Making It Perfectly Clear,
In Terms That Would Be Unmistakable,
"That The Status Quo And
Partisan Politics in Government
Will No Longer Be Tolerated
Because BOTH Interfere
With
Effectively And Efficiently
Accomplishing
The Important Work Of The
People And The Nation!"
|
The PEOPLE who make up the Electorate also have a vital role in changing the way Washington Works.
They are NOT Completely Blameless in the deficient and regrettable state of Government both as discussed on this Website and as witnessed daily by no small number of Americans.
Many People claim that they are too busy with their own lives and have little time, if any, to actively concern themselves with the current way that campaigns and elections are conducted, except, perhaps, to cast their vote.
To a certain extent, because of the partisan politics and appalling political displays associated with the current state of campaigns and elections, much of that thinking can be somewhat justified.
Others, on the other hand, do take a more active role because they are convinced that their party's candidate would make a better President.
Generally, however, in both cases:
VOTING DECISIONS,
Today,
More Often Than Not, Are Based Principally
On
"Political And Ideological Passions"
Having Little, If Anything, To Do With The Most Vital Qualification Required Of A President
Which Is
"TRUE LEADERSHIP
WITH
INTEGRITY!"
Therefore,
THE PEOPLE
Who Vote AND Don't Vote
Are Also
Responsible
For The
Current
Deplorable State Of Government!
|
The bottom line here is this:
The Leaders in Government, especially in the Executive and Legislative Branches have a responsibility to work effectively for the People and the Nation.
But, in addition, they also have an equally important responsibility to reform the Government where ever reform is needed!
For this to occur would require either the Sitting President or a Future President and/or the Sitting or Future Leaderships in both Houses of Congress to take a stand and basically adopt the firm position:
That there is a
far superior mode of operating
in
Government
based on
Authentic Leadership, Integrity, and
Good Judgment,
and
NOT
on the
Typical Political, Idealogical,
and
Business-As-Usual Mode
of
Operating.
|
If that position were employed, much of the ineffectiveness, and inappropriate influence, dissension, waste, greed, and corruption that "politics" generates and fosters will, over time, be greatly reduced, so long as:
Qualified Leaders
ARE IN PLACE
Who,
Not Only
Understand The True Meaning
of
"Authentic Leadership With Integrity,"
But Also
WHOSE PAST
CLEARLY DEMONSTRATES
THAT
THEY
UNDERSTAND AND PRACTICE IT
IN
THEIR OWN LIVES!
BUT
IN ADDITION,
A
"RESPONSIBLE ELECTORATE"
MUST BE WILLING
TO MAKE THAT VIEWPOINT KNOWN
AND THEN
CONFIRM IT
AT THE
VOTING BOOTH!
FINALLY:
"Politics and Campaigns"
Related To
ELECTIONS
Is a Costly and Complex Process
That, For A Year
Or More
Preoccupies,
Unnecessarily and Wastefully,
The
"Elected Officials And Their Staffs",
Whose Principal Job Is To Work
FULL TIME
For The People And The Nation!
For An Account Of That Process,
See
"Is Integrity Possible
In
Presidential
Campaigns, Debates, And Elections"

GCC's Leadership Strategy for Government was designed by GCC to deal with and solve the most fundamental problem in Government at the highest levels.
That problem, simply stated, is that:
- Politics - - rather than the legitimate needs of the People and the Nation - - is what often defines the agenda in Washington
- Politics dictates what gets done and how it gets done, and then, the people are left with the consequences, and thus:
The People always end up paying for the inappropriate and irresponsible decisions of government; i.e., of Presidents, Congresses and Other Leaders in Government!
IMPORTANT TO NOTE:
For the purpose of applying GCC's Leadership Strategy in Government, GCC makes an important distinction between two parts of Government:
- The Part Of Government Tied To Politics And Elections:
This is the part
in which elected officials and their appointees hold office and serve for fixed periods (determined by law and/or elections); i.e., the Executive and Legislative Branches:
GCC believes it is both essential and urgent that "CHANGE" to this part of government be dealt with first.
The reason for this is that the "POLITICS" in government is one of the two principal causes of why the government fails, and continues to fail, to work effectively, efficiently, economically, and ethically for the American People and the Nation. The other cause has to do with the "Lack of Authentic Leadership with Integrity"!
- The Permanent Part Of Government NOT Tied Directly To Politics Nor To Elections:
This part includes the hundreds of thousands of officials and workers who are employed (but not politically elected or appointed) to manage and carry out the daily work and services of government:
GCC believes that "CHANGE" to this part of government (i.e., the permanent part of government) should be dealt with following the completion of 1 above that deals with the "politics" in government.
Once that is dealt with, then a different strategy; i.e., GCC's General Strategy for All Types of Organizations would be applied to this permanent part of government.
So, before attempting to apply "CHANGE" to the permanent part of Government (as defined in 1 above, GCC believes it is urgent that the fundamental problem of "politics"- - particularly at the Executive and Legislative levels of Government (1 above) - - be addressed and solved first using GCC's Strategy for Government which is the strategy you are currently reading.
|
With the right type of LEADERSHIP, as described by GCC, and less of the "politics and over-indulgent pride" - - it becomes quite possible to address and solve many problems and issues of priority and concern.
Washington is certainly not short of people in both Congress and the Office of the President – – considering all of their experts, advisors, and other staff – – to be able to effectively handle multiple jobs on behalf of the American People!
In fact, GCC's Strategy for Government allows for doing just that, in a sensible, non-political, timely way, with the most pressing issues worked on at the very same time that progress can be made on the over-arching issue related to "changing the way Washington works"!
The deep-seated culture in Washington is a serious problem for the American People and the Nation!
That culture distracts and even prevents those who "represent" the American People – – those in Washington who too often are the very embodiment of that dysfunctional culture – – from carrying out, in the most effective, efficient, economical, and ethical way possible, the important work of the People and the Nation, for whom those very representatives and officials in the Institutions of Government are there to serve!
Asking "What Part of Working for the American People don't politicians get?" is always a good question for reminding those in Washington why they are there!
Although presidents and other politicians have promised "change" in Washington, THAT PROMISE STILL REMAINS UNFULFILLED!
However "Real Change in the Way Washington Works" is still possible with the right strategy and the right leadership!
Real Change is NOT likely to come from politicians - - Not from Democrats, Not from Republicans, Nor from Independents!
Simply put, there is a serious lack of connection between many politicians and the American People whom these politicians were voted Into office to represent but, too often, disregard and even mislead.
GCC has the Winning Strategy RIGHT NOW
to "Change the Way Washington Works!"
A Strategy that will finally result in Real Fundamental Change In the Way Washington Works as exemplified in this GCC Strategy For Government!
It represents "CHANGE" that Responsible American People Would Welcome!
So Long As
Responsible American Voters
Allow the
Deep-Rooted
Party Affiliations, Partisan Politics,
And
Personal Political Agenda
Continue To Dominate The Washington Scene
And Dictate
"What Gets Done In Washington"
AND,
So Long As
Politicians, Party Influences,
Personal Agenda
And
Special Interests
Can Call Into Question, And Even Trump "Doing What's Right And Best For The American People And The Nation". . .
Then Nothing Fundamental In Washington Will Ever Change! |
Accordingly, GCC offers a challenge to Any Washington Administration with the desire and commitment "to change the way Washington works!"
But It Is Also A Challenge To RESPONSIBLE
American Voters Whose Voices And Votes Can Bring About The Type Of "CHANGE" That
GCC's STRATEGY FOR GOVERNMENT
Was Designed To Achieve!
GCC
Has The Winning Strategy
and
Offers a Challenge,
Not Only
to the
Current Administration,
But To
Any Administration
In Washington,
And
At The
State and Local Levels,
Whose
Chief Executives
Are
Sufficiently Serious
to
Take Up the Challenge,
Once-And-For-All,
To
BREAK THE CYCLE
AND
Change the Way
Government Works
AT ALL LEVELS . . .
And,
Thus,
As A Nation,
Serve As A
True Example,
Of
Integrity, Trust,
And
Enduring Strength
To The Rest Of The
World!
It's Time To Stop
The
Perpetual
Counter-Productive, Blame-Game
Hyperbole, Demonization,
And
Theatrics
As Demonstrated Daily
By
Political Leaders,
And
Representatives
In
Government
And . . .
Finally,
And For The First Time,
Change The Way Washington Works
For The People, For The Nation,
And . . .
As A Symbol Of
True Leadership, Integrity, and Strength
To The Rest Of The World!
GCC'S
WINNING STRATEGIES
REPRESENT
THE
SOLUTION!
|
Credit Where Credit Is Due!
GCC
Gives Credit
To Those Working At All Levels Of Government,
To The American People,
And
To The Immigrants In America
Who, Today,
"PUT INTEGRITY FIRST"
In The Decisions They Make,
In How They Carry Out Their Work,
And
In The Way They Conduct Their Daily Lives!
They
Will Be
The
"Beneficiaries Of A Changed Government"
Of The Type That Works For
ALL PEOPLE . . .
The Very Type Of Government
That GCC's Strategy Is Able To Achieve
And
The Very Type That
America And The World Community
Desperately
Need Now!
And For
Those In America
Who Continue To
Base
The Decisions They Make,
How They Carry Out Their Work,
And
The Way They Conduct Their Daily Lives
DEVOID OF HONOR AND INTEGRITY . . .
They Should,
At The Very Least,
Review The
Endless Number Of Opportunities In America
To Begin The Process Of
Changing Their Lives
For Their Own Benefit
And That Of
Their Family, Friends,
The Country
And
Society!
