“I am honored to be appointed chairman of the General Counsel 4×24 group,” said Petty. “The General Counsel sessions with senior government attorneys have been invaluable to industry leaders and I am excited to continue the proud tradition and to continue to collaborate with fellow senior in-house attorneys on topics of significant interest given our shared objectives.”
Petty joined Booz Allen Hamilton in 2014 as vice president and deputy general counsel, and has since held several positions of increasing responsibility. In his current role, he oversees the firm’s legal department while working with outside counsel on certain matters.

“The legal underpinning of the GovCon market forms the bedrock of the industry based on contracts. The executives who expertly navigate the complex legal landscape and constantly evolving compliance requirements are critical to the success of not only their respective firms but of the ecosystem writ large,” said Jim Garrettson, CEO of Executive Mosaic and founder of the 4×24 leadership program.
“For more than two decades, Josh has demonstrated outstanding legal leadership and delivered innovative general counsel expertise to GovCon firms such as Accenture and now Booz Allen, making him an ideal senior executive to lead our General Counsel 4×24 group. Under Josh’s guidance, we anticipate a season of invigorating growth, insights and achievement within this vital peer group,” Garrettson added.
