At today’s @AmPhilSociety panel discussion, I kept asking myself: How do we protect #participatorydemocracy when corruption, self-dealing and attacks on facts erode trust? After a career in public service, I still believe in the power of the people. But I worry about what’s next.
Grateful to be part of a @PennSAS community where mathematics meets participatory democracy, starting with the Declaration of Independence.
A challenge for public managers: turn founding principles into enduring institutions where people can shape decisions, and measure success.

Thrilled to share that I’ll be serving as Chief Executive Officer for @ChescoGovt. This vibrant suburban county, outside Philadelphia, is special — it’s where Caroline and I started our lives together in the 1990s.
Honored to lead the county's talented team of 2,600 employees.
#Chesco Commissioners announce the restructuring of Chester County Government's top administrative positions, naming David Byerman as Chief Executive Officer and Erik Walschburger as Chief Operating Officer. Read more: chesco.org/CivicAlerts.aspx?….

My daughter Amanda is diving right in as a middle school social studies teacher, bringing a busload of 8th graders to see @HamiltonMusical! Please consider making a donation to this great cause -- $500 away from making this experience free for these largely underprivileged kids.
What @SpaceX is doing is so incredibly inspiring! Wow!
Some amazing views of the #NorthernLights, shot tonight just outside Lexington, KY!
Great to see PBS shining a spotlight on the tremendous "We the People" #CivicEd competition. If you're ever feeling jaded about the future of our democracy, serve as a judge for one of these competitions -- these students will blow you away!
