Dear Ted:
You may have noticed in my memoranda to the President
that I mentioned three types of individuals that might do to
take over the new operations job that will be left vacant by
General Haig's departure. One of those types was a management
consultant individual who had had considerable experience with
the Federal Government.
Of all those with whom I am acquainted, John Garrity seems
to fit this type better than any. I had an opportunity to
talk with him ten days ago and he submitted the attached letter
and resume as a result of that meeting.
I bring it to your attention in the event that this is
still the type that interests the President.

Most sincerely,

Dear Governor:
I enclose the biography I pulled together following our conversation this
afternoon. I have tried to tailor it to the situation you have in mind. If you
need more information, just let me know, although it is fairly lengthy as is.
One further thought - Phil Buchen has been involved during some of my work
at COMSAT. He might be able to contribute to your thinking.
I will give the basic question of organization some further thought. No
matter how the other matter proceeds, this requires further thought and study.
I will be in the office through Saturday. I will give you a call then to see if
and how we should proceed.
John Sincerel yours,

John T. Garrity is a director (i.e., senior partner) of McKinsey & Company,
the international management consulting firm. He serves on the firm's Managing
Committee and has for the last nine years been Managing Director of the
Washington office. He also carries firm-wide functional responsibility for
McKinsey's public sector practice which includes national governments, state and
local government, and international organizations. In his 24 year career with
our Firm, he has served a wide range of public and private sector clients on a
variety of management issues.
In the public sector, Mr. Garrity has directed (i.e., served as partner in
charge) our extensive work involving the reorganization of the International Bank
for Reconstruction and Development (World Bank). He also directed our study to
assist Intelsat as this international satellite based communications organization
was in the start-up process. At the Federal level, he is currently directing our
work for the United States Railway Association looking to the reorganization of
the bankrupt Northeast railroads. He has directed our work in the Department of
Transportation, where we assisted the Department in developing management pro-
cesses to strengthen department-wide decision making for grants, research and
development programs. He directed all our work with the Department of Defense
which involved a series of studies to improve the management systems for planning
and control in the Office of the Secretary of Defense and for the Army general
staff. In addition, he has served as guest lecturer at the Army War College and
the Department of Defense Computer Institute, and is currently serving on a
five man "committee of experts" to review the Five Year Defense Planning
Structure. Mr. Garrity also directed our work for the Office of Management and
Budget which included designing a management information system to integrate
planning and budgeting across all agencies of the Federal government. Further,
he has directed our work with the Communications Satellite Corporation (COMSAT)
which involved organization, management compensation and research and develop-
ment strategy formulation for COMSAT. He has also been involved in our work
in starting-up the Price Commission, in reorganizing the Federal National
Mortgage Association from a government agency to a government-sponsored pri-
vate institution, and in moving the Postal Service from a Federal Department to
a government-sponsored corporation.
At the state and local level, he is currently directing our work to reorganize
and reorient the Hawaiian Housing Authority. He has also directed our study to
start-up the Metropolitan Atlanta Regional Transit Authority (MARTA). He

resources and tools available to him. In the District of Columbia, he has served
the Mayor on reorganizing the District's Housing and Community Development
Department activities and has led the program which saved from financial
collapse the National Capital Housing Authority. In the City of Richmond, he
directed a study in conjunction with a citizen's committee which importantly
reduced the city's deficit, and he assisted in developing a sound approach to
launching a regional government in the greater Richmond area.
In his role as functional leader of our public practice world-wide, he has
been involved in studies for government agencies in several foreign countries
including the United Kingdom, France, Australia, Tanzania, Chile, the Netherlands,
and Mexico.
Mr. Garrity also has extensive experience in serving the private sector. He
has served such private companies as: American Airlines, American Express
Company, Coca Cola, Geigy Chemical Company, Inland Steel, Linde Division
of Union Carbide, State Mutual Life Assurance Company, Sun Oil Company,
Virginia Electric and Power Company, among others. These studies ranged
from merger-acquisition to developing improved systems for management plan-
ning and control.
Mr. Garrity has been a frequent speaker and writer on management problems.
His published works include: "Getting the Most Out of Your Computer" and
"Red Ink for Ghetto Industries?' (published in the Harvard Business Review),
and "The Management Information Crisis" (published in the Financial Executive).
As a matter of Firm policy, Mr. Garrity is not a member of the board of
any profit making organization. He is, however, fairly active with non-profit
organizations. He serves on the Board of Associate Trustees of Holy Cross
College and for two years was the National Fund Chairman. He currently serves
as a director and member of the Finance Committee of the National Symphony
Orchestra. He is Chairman of the Public Sector Advisory Committee of the

Mr. Thaddeus R. Beal
The White House
Washington, D. C. 20500
Dear Ted:
As you asked at our meeting yesterday, I have tried to give further
thought to the duties, requirement, and possible candidates for the position
we discussed, whatever its title turns out to be. Since I was under the
pressure of getting off to New York and Sao Paulo, I had little time for
organized thinking. Nonetheless, let me pass on my random thoughts.
Position Duties
As to position duties, two general comments are in order. First, the
role this position will play will be conditioned by the President's manage-
ment style and by the management objectives he sets for his administration.
I don't have a clear picture on either count except that apparently one and all
are convinced that the White House staff should be smaller and that there
should be no Chief of Staff as in the prior administration. Second, this
position will unquestionably evolve over time. While this is true of any staff
position, it should be particularly true in this situation where people are-
new to each other, the President's needs are changing, and the like.
For both sets of reasons, I can visualize the position's duties only in
the broadest terms. Nonetheless, let me suggest four key duties (not neces-
sarily in order of importance).
1. Pick up the threads of White House staff activities left over from
the prior administration. While the incumbent is new, the position
as an institution must function with appropriate continuity.
Y FORM
- 2 -
2. Organize and coordinate on-going White House staff activities.
This does not mean that all contacts with the President should be
channeled through this position or that this position should com-
ment on all documents submitted to the President. However, it
should help to ensure that documents coming to the President
through normal staff channels are timely, comprehensive, com-
plete, and consistent.
3. Systematically review White House staff activities to determine
sound opportunities for elimination. It is all well and good to talk
about cutting back White House staff, but first you have to eliminate
the activities that generate the requirement for staff. This must
be done consistent with the President's style, his management
objectives, sound organization structure and process, recognizing,
in addition, that management in government never can or should
be as tidy as the management in a private corporation.
4. Provide leadership to the White House staff. This does not mean,
as has been done in the past, to bind the White House staff to this
position. What it does mean is to develop sound processes and to
train and motivate the staff so it can function at high quality with a
minimum of rigidity and oversight. As I view this position, one
goal should be to see how quickly the incumbent can work himself
out of a job or at least make his passing an event the entire organi-
zation can take in easy stride.
If these, then, are some of the position's important duties, what are the
requirements of the position and the profile of background and experience that
you should be looking for in filling the position.
Position
Requirements
Needless to say, the overriding requirement is that there can be developed
a good working relationship and human chemistry between the President and
the incumbent. This is a must. Beyond that, I would see the following back-
ground and experience as important in selecting the person for this position.
1. A deep and broad understanding of management in the public sector.
Management in the public sector is inherently different than in the
private sector. The person you seek should already understand
that difference and have a real feel for what is required. However,
the candidate's experience should not be only or even primarily in
government since there is a risk of becoming too bureaucratic and
too unquestioning of how things are currently done.
FORD
- 3 -
2. A willingness to serve unobtrusively and without personal ambition.
In my opinion, it would be a mistake to select someone who would
view this position as a stepping stone to further political or indus-
trial advancement. Such a person would inevitably, though even
only subconsciously, try to draw power and publicity to the position.
For this reason, I suggest you consider candidates who are used to
serving others in a professional capacity.
3. Broad experience in organization structure, management processes,
and management behavior. The essence of this job is to develop
ways to serve the President systematically but flexibly. Thus, a
well rounded knowledge of organization and management processes
is a key position requirement.
4. An ability to handle substantive issues. The exact role of this
position is still unclear. However, assuming it involves more than
routine office management, the candidate should bring sufficient
background and judgment to understand the nature of the issues
going forward to the President. Thus, the incumbent should view
his role as facilitating communications on substantive matters
between the President and the rest of his organization.
5. An ability to get things done. The experience of the candidate
should not be merely theoretical, nor should his interest be only
academic. The President needs to get things done. However, your
candidate should not be so action oriented, as say the typical corpo-
rate president, that he loses sight of or becomes frustrated by the
inherent limitations in this supporting position.
6. A sense of detachment. If the key position requirement is a close
working relationship with the President, then it could be soundly
argued that this position should be filled by one of his close asso-
ciates. And I would expect that all are being considered. However,
based on my experience in other situations, let me suggest you
think this through carefully. Often times a newcomer is better
able to bring an objective, detached point of view so important in
such a position. Further, a newcomer can cause less dislocation
both when he comes and when he leaves.
7. An appropriate age. The person you seek should combine the right
balance between the maturity and perspective from long and broad
experience and physical vitality and mental agility.
ANDWAY THE FRAD
- 4 -
8. Availability. I gather there is need for speed in filling this
position. Thus, availability is an important consideration.
Possible
Candidates
As I see it, these are the key position requirements you should have in
mind in considering candidates for the position. When we were together, I
suggested seven possible candidates. When I return to Washington on Monday,
September 30, I will call if I can think of more. In any event, if you wish to
get in touch with me in the meantime, just give Mrs. Crumb a call.
Sincerely yours,
John John T. Garrity

As you requested, I present herewith some information on the names

Some new names have been added to provide alternatives. These new
names have been suggested internally. Except for Garrity, nom of
the people mentioned has been approached about the position by anyone

Danforth, 38, is a graduat e of Princeton and the Yale

Danforth lost to Stuart Symington in a close race for the

Elliott Richardson's office feels that Danforth is a superb Attorney General
who has ambitions to be the U. S. Senator from Missouri and will probably run
in 1976 against Stuart Symington. From a purely political standpoint, I would
think President Ford would be better advised to have Danforth as a candidate
running for the Senate against Symington, who he lost to in a rather close race
last time out.

almost 2-1 margin (he received 62% of the vote).
Mayor Wilson has gained national recognition as the architect of San Diego's
efforts to control its urban growth through careful long-range planning of the

was a laboratory for an entire nation that has become dramatically concerned
about the adverse environmental and tax consequences of uncontrolled and
premature development upon the urban fringes. " Consistent with San Diego's
determination to check urban sprawl, Mayor Wilson was the author of a city
policy designed to effect the revitalization of Downtown and the encouragement
of new construction in areas where urbanization already exists and where
necessary public facilities and services are available.
The city's campaign contribution and expenditure control ordinance, authored
by a task force appointed and chaired by Mayor Wilson, became local law in
May, 1973, and has been called the toughest campaign-spending law in the
nation.
The city-owned San Diego Transit Corporation has increased ridership more
than 100 percent under Mayor Wilson's leadership through the reduction of
fares to 25¢, elimination of confusing and costly zones, and the imposition
of express bus routes during peak commuter hours.
Mayor Wilson has I layed key roles in local bond issue campaigns to acquire
open space land; in the successful statewide campaign to pass Proposition 20,
the landmark Coastal Zone Conservation Initiati which created the
California Coastal Zöne Conservation Commission and Six regional commiss ons
and charged them with preparation of a comprehensive plan for the orderly,
long-range conservation and management of the California coastline; and he
has been invited on numerous occasions to speak on behalf of San Diego and
the nation's cities to state and federal governmental bodies on subjects
ranging from land use and environmental protection, transportation, and
election campaign reform to local government reorganization, manpower
and regional approaches to problem solving.
Details of these activities and other achievements in office are contained in
the biography which accompanies this fact sheet.

L. DEAN BROWN - Deputy Under Secretary of State for Management (PAS, IV)
A Career Foreign Service Officer, with the rank of Career Minister, Dean
Brown has proven to be a most effective Departmental figure since he returned
from Jordan where he served as Ambassador. He is an extremely quick,
capable, and urbane individual who has demonstrated the willingness and the
ability to "tackle the tough situation" and bring about a positive result.
Brown's judgement and demeanor are quite refined, and he is well-regarded
by although not personally close to the Secretary. Although charged with the
myriad management tasks of the Department, he is called upon for "diplomatic
trouble shooting" as evidenced by his appearance in Cyprus following the
assassination of Ambassador Davis. Brown's effectiveness is founded, in
part, upon his ability to step out of the "striped pants" and address non-
diplomatic issues with non-diplomatic people. Although not a politician in the
partisan sense, Brown, at age 54, appears to bring "equitable discipline" to
a working environment.

GREAT
LAURENCE SILBERMAN - Deputy Attorney General (PAS, Level II)
In both the procedural and policy arenas, Silberman has been the de facto
Attorney General--and he has done it very well. An extremely bright
attorney, he also possesses a finely hoaned sense of management which is,
of course, essential if one is to "run" an institution, rather than "be run by
it. " Like so many personally dynamic people, Silberman can be terse and
brusk, but certainly never to the degree that his effectiveness is impaired.
He is not a "politician, 11 but he is politically sensitive--especially in the
context of the Federal bureaucracy-- and has come to be regarded as a "fair
dealer. " Silberman is a "team player, 11 and certainly did not balk at his
professional obligations to former President Nixon; however, there is no
question but that he is far more comfortable with President Ford. His
professional performance and personal demeanor in a delicate position at
a delicate time was so credible that he certainly should be considered for
other responsibilities of similar or greater magnitude.
