Statement of Purpose


The statement of purpose for the Center for Management and Executive Leadership was first formulated by the Board of Regents and approved by the FAA Administrator in April 1987. It was reviewed and found current by the Management Development Steering Committee in December 1988 and reaffirmed each year thereafter, with updates made in 2000 and 2005 as follows:

The Center for Management and Executive Leadership supports the agency's continuing efforts to ensure a safe, more efficiently managed National Airspace System. Toward this end, we will create a quality learning environment that provides supervisors, managers, executives, and other designated employees with an understanding of their leadership responsibilities, and skills that will enable them to:

  • Manage the agency's human resources effectively.
  • Accomplish program goals that enhance Organizational Performance.
  • Implement the FAA Model EEO Program.
  • Promote open and honest communication.
  • Encourage teamwork and employee involvement in decision making and change management.
