CDC LEADERSHIP AND DIVERSITY ASSESSMENT
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Center for Disease
Control and Prevention (posted: 6/21/2004)
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), by agreement
between its director and the U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services (DHHS), is evaluating and redesigning its leadership
and diversity initiatives. CDC has asked the Academy to assist
them with this effort to create meaningful, strategic culture
change. The Academy has assembled a seven-member panel consisting
of Academy Fellows and two representatives nominated by CDC.
The Panel will guide and oversee the Academy's project team.
The Academy is also working in concert with the CDC Chief Operating
Officer.
To assist CDC with
this effort, the Academy will:
- Conduct an agency-wide assessment of
its leadership development and diversity strategies
- Develop a leadership plan
- Provide advice and recommendations for
implementation strategies that include a scorecard approach
to managing its workforce
- Develop an evaluation model to assess
the plan's implementation and techniques for integrating
performance measures into the CDC planning process
With the assistance of a project team,
the Panel will complete this one-year study by the summer
of 2005.
