Godfrey Harris has been preparing managerial options to everyday activities — political programs, event planning, household moving, project development — for the past 50+ years as a public policy consultant. Prior to co-founding Harris/Ragan Management Group in 1968, Harris taught political science at two universities and was a U.S. diplomat in three world capitals. While recuperating from back surgery, he realized that caregiving services could benefit from the same kind of planning, record keeping and management approaches he had applied to many other topics.
