Government Leaders on Finding and Keeping Talent

Blog: Author: Hillary Roberts | Source: HCI | November 3, 2010

Like any other employer, the U.S. Government faces some disturbing demographic trends in the years ahead.  As the Baby Boomers retire from critical positions in droves, the public sector will face myriad challenges such as the loss of organizational knowledge and increased demand on their succession plans.  more »

     Article: Author: Eric Braverman, Aaron De Smet, Bill Schaninger | Source: McKinsey Quarterly | January 22, 2010

The US federal government lags well behind the private sector in a number of important organizational-performance measures, particularly in fostering employee engagement, talent management, and accountability, a McKinsey survey finds. But the federal government enjoys relative strengths in the elements that deal with the heart of an organization.

How is Talent Managed in the Federal Sector?

     Blog: Author: Hillary Roberts | Source: HCI | August 20, 2010

The Human Capital Institute wants to hear how your talent management strategies stack up compared to other federal agencies.  
At HCI, we know that Human Capital leaders and officers in the federal government, state government and military know that strategic talent management is a critical new discipline---as well as a powerful new toolset for leaders at every level. Workforce planning, recruitment, onboarding and engagement, learning and development, performance management, succession planning and retention are all critical practices that must be embraced and integrated across the organization. more »

Capitalizing on Public Sector Talent

     Blog: Author: Joy Kosta, HCS, SWP | Source: HCI | June 4, 2010

Recently I was surprised to see that the number of private sector attendees at a webcast, Take Time From Your Day Job-the ROI of Developmental Assignments outnumbered public sector attendees. Then I read this comprehensive paper, Business Case Analysis Leadership Development in the Public Sector that includes compelling private sector ROI examples that could be applied to the federal sector. This cross-over fertilization is a great thing, but I wonder why talent management in the federal government seems to have more room for improvement (especially when the length of federal talent tenure is usually longer than in the private sector). more »

Frank Stipe
Senior Recruitment Specialist, Talent Acquisition & Evaluation B
Internal Revenue Service (IRS)

Frank came to the Internal Revenue Service in 1977 as a tax collector in Los Angeles. Since nobody goes to college for five years to get a degree in tax collection, be sure to ask him how he wound up in this unique occupation! After some years of convincing people to become taxpayers in such exotic locations as the docks of San Pedro, the beaches of Orange County, and the hills of Hollywood, Frank moved on to become a technical instructor, education specialist and, most recently, the senior recruitment marketing specialist in the Talent Acquisition and Evaluation Branch of the IRS Human Capital Office.

Since 1999, Frank has played a lead role in the design, deployment and management of the IRS's recruitment marketing campaign. He is part of a dynamic team of recruitment specialists, HR specialists and industrial psychologists that conducts occupational analyses, builds competency models, creates competency assessments, deploys recruitment marketing campaigns, manages the IRS Careers website and supports all phases of IRS recruitment operations. more »
