Confronting the Human Capital Crisis in Government
With almost half of the federal, state and local government workers eligible for retirement over the next few years, human capital managers must learn to successfully recruit, retain and reward a performance-based workforce.
Making Government an “Employer of Choice”
Government human capital managers help communicate agency mission, goals, culture and incentives to attract a new generation of civil servants.
Evaluating and Rewarding Employee Performance
HR managers are responsible for objectively reporting the performance of their employees, distinguishing between high and low performers and effectively utilizing workplace flexibilities to reward employees.
Diversity and Liability Management
The responsibilities of HR managers go beyond recruiting and retaining. HR managers must maintain a diverse and productive workforce and comply with the latest EEO and labor legislation, as well as mediate office conflict.
Cultivating the Next Generation of Agency Leaders
The majority of senior executive service professionals are eligible for retirement. HR managers must improve their agency’s knowledge management, succession planning and leadership development initiatives.
Adapting to the Changing Role of HR
Strategic business consulting and workforce analysis is replacing rules-driven processes and uniformity; understanding and thriving in this new role will be a major issue for all HR professionals.
