tools to:
• Ensure that employees understand how their job performance
is critical to that of the "whole" organization

1:00 Workshop C: Recruitment and
Retention
Federal agencies have traditionally engaged in a “spray
and pray” approach to recruiting staff, wherein the
age-old practice of filling empty seats has been the focus
of recruitment initiatives. In this workshop you will develop
a framework to stimulate more effective recruitment planning
in your agency.
• Define and implement a strategy for defining, implementing
and evaluating an effective human capital recruitment plan

the hiring process and to cut off the bureaucratic red tape

begins with workforce analysis and ends with effective performance
measures

workshop will emphasize employee success and transform the
way your agency operates.

requirements of the agency human capital plan to achieve mission
results
• Provide an opportunity to enhance job skills, knowledge
and abilities to strengthen the services and operations of
the entire organization
