Let me start with a few words of thanks. I would like to thank Rabbi Bulka for the very inspiring presentation. It is very relevant to what you are doing. Kindness is a good way of presenting it. I want to credit the Association of Professional Executives of the Public Service (APEX), who started work on civility and respect several years ago and have opened that dialogue.
