Abstract
What is the influence of a president's party on the composition of the Senior Executive Service (SES) workforce? This article examines the relationship between a president's party and a group's representation in higher-level positions over the past 21 years. The author finds that Democratic presidents are likely to be related to female and minority representation in the SES, while size of the SES, bachelor's degrees, professional jobs, and population do not appear to be directly linked to representation of women and minorities in the senior executive positions. Additionally, the impact of the party control of the presidency on the SES employment is different in regards to race, ethnicity, or gender.
