6.3: Leadership Development
Enhance Leadership Development Other Information:
Without proper training and development, Federal workers cannot keep up with new management and technology innovations. Improving
the effectiveness of training and development programs is vital to achieving productivity gains, and we are working with agencies
to examine and revitalize these efforts. Leadership training and development is especially critical given the large number
of senior managers eligible for retirement in the coming years. The impending turnover creates a compelling need to strengthen
the top career leadership of the Federal Government. This involves identifying talent pipelines, recruiting and hiring skilled
executives, grooming high potential employees for future roles, and improving ongoing managerial and leadership skills training
for today’s SES. To address these issues, the PMC recently launched a collaborative, cross-agency effort to identify and implement
best practices in SES recruitment, appraisal and development. This effort has 20 agencies contributing to three working groups
that will present recommendations to the PMC by the end of the year. We look forward to engaging you as we proceed.
