Senior Executive Service · ECQsRP / ECQs

Five qualifications. One review board. No second draft.

The Executive Core Qualifications are narratives, not bullet points. Each one is a CCAR story the Qualifications Review Board scores against a strict standard. We have read thousands of them, and we write the ones that pass.

The standard

What the board is reading for.

The QRB does not score titles or scope. It scores whether each ECQ is a complete CCAR story with a result the writer can own. Most strong executives tell the wrong half of that story.

Five qualifications, grouped the way the board reads them.

ECQ 1 & 2

Leading change & people

Vision, strategic thinking, and the human side of leadership, each shown through a story with a measurable result.

ECQ 3 & 4

Results & resources

Driving outcomes and managing the financial, technical, and human capital it takes to get them.

ECQ 5

Building coalitions

Influence across agencies and stakeholders, the qualification most candidates under-tell and the board reads closely.
