Leonard M. Salle
"President and co-founder of the Commonweal Institute, Salle brings a business perspective to the promotion of moderate-progressive ideas. His professional experience includes high-level management and executive positions in engineering design and construction firms. The scope of some of his projects was in the hundreds of millions of dollars, with hundreds of employees and multi-year durations. He also has experience with local, state and Federal government agencies. In the late 1990s, he was president of a union of engineers and architects affiliated with the AFL-CIO. Mr. Salle has done strategic planning for long-term organizational development and for involving the public in both private and public development projects. Additionally, he has been extensively involved in the marketing of professional services, both within companies and as a consultant to professional service firms.
"Mr. Salle has also been an advocate for the public, dealing with issues such as development of school busing policies in hillside communities, creation of one of the first heritage tree ordinances in California, review and critique of proposed development projects and environmental impact reports, political strategy to oppose placement of high pressure gas transmission lines across farmland, and revision of residential zoning laws to limit development intensity."
