Federal Manager's Daily Report

The federal section of the International Public Management

Association for Human Resources has scheduled a conference

for Nov. 18-19 at George Washington University, on the

direction of human capital policies and programs in the

federal government now that the presidential election has

taken place.


The conference will look at whether current reforms will

continue or if new ones will be proposed, as well as the

Office of Personnel Management and Office of Management

and Budget’s management agenda, human capital scorecard,

and competitive sourcing, among other issues relevant to

federal managers, according to IPMA.


Featured speakers include Government Accountability Office

comptroller David Walker, Brookings Scholar Paul Light,

and Senior Policy Advisor for OPM Doris Hausser. The

break-out sessions will cover the future of pay for

performance, the federal pay process, and applicant

assessment and selection practices.


Registration is about $500, or slightly more for non-members,

and there is a discount for three or more attendees from

the same agency. Single-day fees are available for $275,

and all include education sessions and food.
