Presidents
The President presides over the DPG, represents it externally and directs it in consultation with the Executive Board. He or she is responsible for implementing the resolutions of the Executive Board, the Council and the Annual General Meeting.
The President attends many appointments within the Presidential Office and represents the DPG in public. The collection of selected speeches by presidents gives DPG members and interested parties an insight into this representative work of the presidency. The collection goes back to 2004.
