Executive Seminar Program for Natural Resources

The Executive Seminar Program is an advanced leadership training program for natural resource leaders offered by the Mark O. Hatfield School of Government and the Executive Leadership Institute at Portland State University.

The Center for Public Service faculty and staff mourns the loss of Executive Seminar Program founder Ted Schlapfer. 

We, like many of you, noted the passing of Ted Schlapfer recently (March 7, 2012) with great sadness – and even greater appreciation for his many contributions. We especially want to celebrate one of those here, as Ted was the founding director and motive force behind the Executive Seminar Program, which is one of the longest-running success stories here at PSU’s Center for Public Service. <-- Read more of Dr. Craig Shinn's Notes on a Founder's Passing

With the ever increasing complexity, controversy, and challenges that accompany today's natural resource issues, it is critical that our leaders enhance their understanding of the dynamic social, economic, and political forces that shape and frame today's issues.  The Executive Seminar Program is a unique and highly effective program for developing these leadership principles.
