On January 27, 2014, Executive Mosaic officially elected, David Zolet, executive vice president and general manager of CSC’s North American public sector to join the ranks of the Wash100 as part of the latest group of inductees into the premier group of leaders on both sides of the intersection of the private and public sectors.
By his own take, Zolet joined CSC’s public sector operations in 2010 at a time of great transformation with an opportunity to really lead and position the firm on how it would contest markets and pursue growth in the future.
Zolet helped drive the formulation and implementation of a new operating model and increased the company’s investment in its cyber, cloud, big data and other “next-gen” technologies.
And that was just what the company said it needed – and sought after – when it hired him.
“Dave brings us an exceptionally strong record of achievement in both new business development and operational management to help us continue growing our government business and reaching our ambitious goals,” said James Sheaffer, who Zolet succeeded in his current role.
“The transformation is designed to offer opportunities for growth and collaboration,” Zolet told GovCon Exec. “Employees are able to get involved and really demonstrate their leadership skills.”
“I always say that leadership is a contact sport, and our team is really embracing this and using it to our advantage.”

The Wash100 is a group of private and public sectors officially elected by Executive Mosaic’s organizational and editorial leadership for demonstrating a consistent commitment to organizational excellence, and driving above-average value to the American public through strategic vision, innovation and achievement.

Executive Mosaic inducts new leaders each year, but the recognition is earned over a career of work.
