5.b: Workforce
Increase NIST’s impact by focusing on our people Other Information:
Changes in the technological and demographic landscape are shaping a workforce that will be increasingly diverse, entrepreneurial,
highly mobile, and team-oriented. NIST’s workforce will have a broader span of expertise; multi-disciplinary training will
be used extensively, and high potential staff will be offered management and leadership training as a fundamental part of
their professional preparation. In this context, NIST will continuously improve internal communications, strive for clarity
and transparency in all organizational decisions, encourage innovation through cross-organizational interactions, and provide
every available resource needed to sustain a highly motivated, high-performance workforce. To achieve its 2010 mission, NIST
also will reinforce high levels of knowledge sharing and teamwork by using best practices in performance management and organizational
development.
