EXECUTIVE RESOURCES INDEX

DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVITY

The Executive Resources (ER) program provides Governmentwide leadership, policy direction, and guidance and technical assistance for the Senior Executive Service (SES) and other executive personnel systems to maximize agencies’ needs for flexibility while safeguarding the larger corporate interests of the Government.

In order to meet these challenges, the Office of Executive Resources Management has recently supplemented its base of professionals having long-term OPM executive resources program experience by adding human resources specialists who have managed executive resources programs in support of top leadership in other agencies. This gives us fresh insight and perspectives on agency issues and problems. We are also implementing an updated Executive Information System developed under contract which transfers data formerly maintained in a mainframe to a client server environment. The new system is Y2K compliant and provides for agencies to input data on senior executive actions directly over the internet. This eliminates submission and keying of paper input documents so that we will be able to provide more current data with less time and effort by agencies and OPM staff.

FY 2000 PRIORITIES

Executive Resources has identified two priorities for FY 2000 in support of the overall OPM priorities described in the Executive Summary.

The first priority is to give agencies the tools they need to develop and select the best executives and to manage these executives in ways that advance mission accomplishment. (ER FY 1999/2000 Goal 1 and Goal 2)

The second priority is to stimulate cultural change in which continual executive learning, including SES mobility, is highly valued. (ER FY 1999/2000 Goal 4)

OPM STRATEGIC PLAN GOAL I:  provide policy direction and leadership to recruit and retain the federal workforce required for the 21st century.

OVERALL HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT

  • By the year 2002, propose and implement clear, effective policies and programs wherever a need for change was identified in the Year 2000 review.
