(From The Washington Post) — The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), listed No. 1 in this year’s Best Places to Work in the Federal Government rankings, had been rated 25th out of 30 large agencies six years ago. After initiating a set of management reforms geared toward improving employee culture and morale, the FDIC has seen their scores skyrocket – a good reminder to federal leaders that doing the hard work can improve employee job satisfaction, commitment and ultimately performance. To help federal leaders turn their agencies around, the Best Places to Work analysis produced by my organization, the Partnership for Public Service, includes staff/manager alignment data that provides insights into how the employees and the leaders each perceive the work environment.

Today’s image comes from the January-February 1948 issue of The Journal of Industrial Training . This is one panel of the 27 sections of the Federal Training Officers’ Conference exhibit of materials held recently in Washington.

(From FederalNewsRadio.com) — Making sure new employees are fully integrated into an agency is important — especially when that new employee is the boss or a high-powered senior executive. The Office of Personnel Management is rolling out a new one-year transition framework to help new executives transition better and faster through an “onboarding” process. OPM’s plan, called “Hit the Ground Running,” includes checklists and goals for new high-level hires. John Palguta, vice president for policy at the Partnership for Public Service, told the Federal Drive with Tom Temin and Amy Morris the onboarding model has been gaining traction across the government and for a variety of positions. “Everybody can think back to a time when they started a new job and had a bad onboarding experience,” Palguta said. “They showed up on the first day, the organization wasn’t ready for them, they had a desk but nothing on it, IT had not gotten them a password and it was just a terrible experience.” Read more .
