Roadmap for Renewing our Federal Government

我们的国家, facing a host of serious domestic 和 international challenges, needs a federal government that is capable of dealing with our current problems 和 those looming on the horizon.   

This requires rebuilding 和 revitalizing our government, the nation’s most important democratic institution, 通过改善联邦领导, 支持联邦劳动力, 促进创新, modernizing technology 和 accelerating collaboration across government 和 across sectors.   

The Biden administration 和 国会 have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to set the government on a sustained path to renewal. 抓住这个机会, we believe there are four key issues the administration 和 国会 must prioritize.

领导及管理

The federal government is facing a leadership crisis. There are too many political appointees 和 those who serve are often unprepared for the unique responsibilities of public sector leadership 和 how to work with stakeholders across government, 包括国会. Leadership development opportunities are scattered, 如果它们存在的话, for career executives 和 both they 和 political leaders do not fully reflect the diversity of the workforce or the nation. 简而言之, the government is doing an inadequate job of training, supporting 和 developing leaders at all levels with consistent st和ards focused on modern competencies 和 the core values of stewardship 和 public trust.

劳动力

The federal government is struggling to recruit, hire 和 retain diverse talent with the skills needed to meet the complex challenges facing our nation. The hiring process is long 和 complicated, the workforce is aging 和 the competition for top talent is fierce. Federal employee engagement lags that of the private sector, agencies do not maximize use of existing hiring authorities 和 the federal compensation system is not aligned with the broader labor market. 然而,政府的许多机构, spurred on by recent p和emic-related workplace changes, have begun to rethink how they recruit, 雇佣和管理他们的员工. We need that same commitment to talent modernization across government.

创新及科技 Modernization

我们的国家需要一个有效的, innovative government that can meet the dem和s of a fast-paced, 相互联系的, 技术驱动的世界. 然而, federal agencies offer few incentives for employees to try new ideas, are saddled with outdated technology 和 lag behind the private sector in hiring qualified technologists in sufficient numbers for critical leadership 和 staff positions. This antiquated system impedes our government’s ability to meet the needs of today’s 相互联系的, 技术驱动的世界 和 prepare for future challenges.
