The Head of the Public Service Award
Call letter to all public servants

Date: April 18, 2001
To:
All public servants
From:
Mel Cappe, Clerk of the Privy Council and Secretary to the Cabinet
Subject:
Celebrating Public Servants Who Make A Difference

I am writing today to launch the nomination process for The 2001 Head of the Public Service Award. Each and every day, public servants contribute to the quality of life Canadians enjoy and make Canada a better place to live.

I am asking you to take a few moments to reflect on those individuals or teams that have demonstrated excellence and to nominate them for this year's award. In doing so, consider the achievements of your colleagues, supervisors and/or employees.

Public servants at all levels, across Canada and abroad, are eligible. Up to 20 awards may be presented.

The award is given in four categories which represent areas of great importance to me as Head of the Public Service. They are: Excellence in Service Delivery, Excellence in Policy, Valuing and Supporting People, and Values and Ethics.

You may find the nomination form and a more detailed explanation of the categories on line at http://publiservice.tbs-sct.gc.ca/hr_connexions_rh. Please submit your nominations by June 22, 2001.

I am convinced that there are many stories to tell about the extraordinary accomplishments of public servants. Together, we can celebrate those who make the Public Service of Canada the best it can be.

Thank you
