Document Summary
The fiduciary administrator: fiduciary , designating of a person who holds something in trust for another , valuable only because of public confidence and support (usually said of money) We often don"t know these people and we don"t contact them. Self-interest rightly understood: responsibility and mutual obligation, we are defined within our communities. We are influenced by the people around us, who we hang around, who"s in our community, continued nurturing through our lives: obligated to others. What we do affects those around us: fluid boundaries, values for public administrators, ultimate obligation: deliver goods via ways that enhance the common good, penultimate: provide and produce common goods, central value: siru -> 3 core values. Service to public interest comes before service to department, organization, political superiors: no one else that works with you is as important as the citizens. Based on aristotle"s concept of practical wisdom. Making decisions based on practical wisdom, not just technical expertise and rational policy analysis.
