Jerry Bolling

Jerry joined TOC as an unconventional registrant because his entire federal service was in and around the financial community. However, before retiring from federal service, Jerry received his doctorate degree in organizational leadership and recognized he wanted to transition his career from the financial community to the work of developing, engaging, leading, and training the federal workforce.

In his new walk, Jerry met a member of TOC who introduced the organization to him. In Jerry’s short time with TOC, he has served on two committees (Retention and Recruiting & 2022 Annual Institute – Program Chair).
