The Effects of Positivity on Delivering

Better Results During Times of Change

Peter Hutchinson, focuses on solving the

toughest problems faced by top decision makers

wanting to deliver better results in government,

nonprofit organizations and education. Most re-

cently he led management consulting strategy for

Accenture’s State, Provincial and Local Government practice

throughout North America. In his career he has served as commis-

sioner of the Minnesota Department of Finance, superintendent of

schools in Minneapolis, a deputy mayor, corporate vice president at

the Dayton Hudson Corporation (now Target) and as president of

the Bush Foundation, one of Minnesota’s largest independent foun-

dations. In 2006, he was a candidate for Governor in Minnesota. In

all of these roles he has championed delivering better results with

whatever resources are available through strategies that challenge

the status quo and lead to the resolution of tough policy problems.

He has captured many of the lessons he has learned along the way

in The Price of Government: Getting the Results We Need in an Age

of Permanent Fiscal Crisis.
