From summer temp to the Pentagon.

When it comes to civil service, William James has been there, done that. Starting at the lowest rung in federal service, he achieved the rare feat of climbing to the highest levels of leadership, shaping decisions that impacted millions.

The Accidental Executive chronicles William’s remarkable career from a GS-1 clerk handling routine paperwork to the federal Senior Executive Service, balancing mission and bureaucracy while navigating the revolution of global technological change.

More than a personal memoir about climbing the civil service ladder, The Accidental Executive is an extraordinary firsthand account of growth and groundbreaking innovation. It’s a reminder that no matter what obstacles arise, fulfillment comes from making a difference and from dedication to something larger than oneself. Let it inspire you to find your own purpose, embrace your challenges, and discover the extraordinary impact you can have on the world.
