It has been said of service organizations that the services provided are only as good as the quality of the employees providing those ser- coUncil vices. There is a great deal of truth in this statement. In fact, the Pawnee Nation has made major strides in recent times memBers to ensure the highest quality of personnel, staff and services are provided to Pawnee tribal members. President: In the years I worked across the country for Indian Health George E. Howell Service, I insisted that the Indian people (no matter the tribe) seeking services be treated with highest regard by the staff. The staff selected to minister to the people were chosen on Vice President: the basis of their training, education, experience, commitment, interview, and personnel references. Charles “Buddy” Lone Chief Based upon these standards, the highest quality of people were selected to provide health services to the tribes. In serving as President, I ask no less of any individual seeking employment with the Nation! Secretary: The central purpose of working for the Nation is meeting the needs of our tribal members by giving Linda Jestes them the highest level our resources can make possible. This includes the quality of the staff working for the tribe. We want and encourage people to bring their skills, experience, talents, energy, educa- Treasurer: tion, training, innovativeness, and fresh ideas to the positions in the Nation for which they apply.
