Book description
Taxpayers deserve the very best from public services, and first-rate public services can only be provided by outstanding government workers. Federal human resource managers face the challenge of attracting and retaining high-caliber individuals within the constraints of ever-tightening budgets and often-conflicting political directives. From a talent management perspective, Optimizing Talent in the Federal Workforce explores:• Best practices for recruiting and selecting employees
• Proven methods for developing and training employees
• Optimal deployment and placement processes.
This text is a must-read for anyone in or working toward a government management position.
