Public sector organizations find themselves in a time in which
the demand for services has increased, the expectation in the quality
of service is high, and the accountability for results is exceptional.
Agencies must be results-driven, citizen-centered, and market-based.
In an effort to improve and enhance organizational effectiveness
and to drive Federal agencies toward becoming high performing organizations,
OPM has worked successfully with agencies in developing a workforce
and succession planning process, at a local and national level.
To become a high performing organization requires an investment
in the people working in the organization and an understanding of
customer and stakeholder needs. The demand for talent continues
to be high as corporations compete for the limited pool of highly
skilled candidates. OPM has addressed issues such as workforce environmental
concerns, the need to review functionality of jobs, workforce forecasting,
career / occupation broadening and the need to better utilize existing
recruitment and retention strategies.
Part of being results-driven is responding to several key initiatives
including the OPM Human Capital Scorecard and the OMB Standards
for Success or "Getting to Green." Basically, each of
the initiatives presents a variation in approach and strategy to
effectively manage human resource assets. The bottom line in all
these initiatives is for Federal agencies to become high performing
organizations.
OPM works with agencies to develop an effective workforce and succession
planning strategy. Workforce and succession planning is a multi-year
approach to human capital management and includes:
- an organizational assessment to identify the performance culture
and to measure employee satisfaction;
- communication strategies;
- workforce forecasting and analysis (strategic alignment);
- retention management;
- recruitment;
- alignment of HR functions;
- leadership assessment (leadership and strategic competencies),
- education and development (learning); and
- evaluation and measurement of outcomes.
