The California Plum Book offers a comprehensive list of elected and appointed roles that typically turn over with the election of a new gubernatorial administration.

It includes targeted descriptions of upper-level positions that we believe are especially well-suited for members of the business community committed to strengthening California and our democracy.

The roles selected here highlight senior-level, strategically important positions responsible for setting policy, overseeing critical operations, and managing cross-agency initiatives. This directory is a resource for civic leaders, researchers, and stakeholders seeking to engage with or better understand California's government and contribute to its future.
