President's Management Agenda: Getting to Green
In August 2001, President Bush launched a Management Reform Agenda targeted
to "address the most apparent deficiencies where the opportunity
to improve performance is the greatest." The President's Management
Council, the Office of Management and Budget and the Office of Personnel
Management have developed standards for success in each of the five governmentwide
initiatives:
1. Strategic Management of Human Capital
2. Competitive Sourcing
3. Improved Financial Performance
4. Expanded Electronic Government
5. Budget and Performance Integration
These standards are captured in the Executive Branch Management Scorecard.
The Scorecard employs a simple grading system: green for success, yellow
for mixed results and red for unsatisfactory.
“Our faculty at the Federal Executive Institute and the Management
Development Centers have partnered with the Office of Management and
Budget to design this curriculum specifically for senior program managers
responsible for the planning and day-to-day management and implementation
of the five initiative areas. This new President's Management Agenda
curriculum provides up-to-date information on best practices and the
practical tools necessary to support governmentwide reform.”
