KC Federal Executive Board topic of latest InterAgency Brown-Bag Lecture

Mr. Larry A. Hisle, executive director of the Greater Kansas City Federal Executive Board (FEB), conducted a presentation on the FEB in the latest InterAgency Brown-Bag Lecture Dec. 12, in the Arnold Conference Room of the Lewis and Clark Center on Fort Leavenworth.

During his presentation, Hisle discussed the role of the FEB in the Kansas City area, and how the FEB supports the many federal agencies with offices and personnel in the region. He also spoke about how FEB contributes to emergency preparedness and facilitates workforce development and alternative dispute resolution, the latter of which he said has saved tax payers over $2.5 million in 2017 alone. Toward the end of the session, Hisle previewed FEB’s programs for 2018, including a leadership development series and an interagency mentoring program.

Hisle has served as the executive director of the Greater Kansas City Federal Executive Board since 2013. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Thomas Edison State University. Hisle has previously served as a program manager in the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. He is very active in the community volunteering with youth sports teams and scouting activities as well as serving on the board of directors of the Sherwood Center for the Exceptional Child and on the advisory council of the KCK Area Technical School.
