Center Events
The Center for Human
Resources Management hosted its quarterly HR Directors Series
luncheon on January 24, 2002. Following a welcome and overview
by Center Director Myra Howze Shiplett, the attendees discussed
human capital measurements and metrics. They received copies
of OMB's executive scorecard, OPM's human capital scorecard,
and information on GAO's soon-to-be-released "Strategic
Human Capital Management: A Maturity Model for Self-Assessment
and Planning." The executive scorecard can be accessed
at www.omb.gov and the human
capital scorecard at www.opm.gov.
GAO was scheduled to share copies of the maturity model and
receive feedback at its February 27 briefing to Consortium
members.
The attendees shared their agencies' experiences
trying to understand and apply various human capital measures.
The Department
of the Interior (DOI) shared its draft strategic human capital
scorecard, which sets forth OPM human capital dimensions,
performance goals, measures, and the specific measures that
DOI would use to rate its human capital strategies and programs.
The scorecard combines the requirements of OPM's strategic
human resources scorecard, human resources management accountability
system, and OMB's human capital standards for success into
a consistent, easy to apply document. DOI has tried to identify
the types and sources of data to be used to measure its efforts.
It will conduct initial assessments in March 2002 to establish
benchmarks. Dave Anderson would welcome questions or comments
about this instrument. He can be reached at (202) 208-7339.
The participants suggested that the Academy
could assist Consortium members in "getting to green"
by pursuing efforts to clarify issues associated with human
capital measures. It also was suggested that the Academy serve
as a clearinghouse of approaches used for implementing and
documenting these measurements. As DOI has shared its own
draft scorecard, it is hoped that other agencies will share
their efforts, as well. Please e-mail them to Catherine Garcia
at cgarcia@napawash.org
and they will be disseminated to Consortium members.
Also, attendees believed that the Academy
should host workshops to provide practical tools to assist
human resources professionals in translating human capital
measures into performance expectations. In this regard, the
Center will host meetings to highlight practical approaches
and strategies, as well as automated tools to assist in reengineering
human resources functions. The following events have been
scheduled:
· February 12: LMI Demonstration,
11:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m.
· February 27: GAO Presentation of Maturity Model,
1:00-3:00 p.m.
· March 20: LMI Demonstration
· April 24: Quarterly HR Directors Series Luncheon
· July 24: Quarterly HR Directors Series Luncheon
More formal invitations for these events will be distributed
as they approach. We look forward to seeing you.
