Course Information
Course Title:
Performance Management in the Federal Sector
Course Description:
Course Number MBU 635: Provides an overview of the laws, regulations, policies, and procedures governing the appraisal/evaluation of performance — both individual and organizational — in today’s Federal government. The course will address each of these two levels of interest in turn, beginning with individual performance management, and examine the ways in which appraisals and evaluations of performance can or should influence decisions about individual compensation, organizational resources, and other human capital and institutional management issues. The course will seek to bring the concepts and considerations underlying these policies and procedures to life through focused examination of selected current topics/issues in federal performance management. Through a mixture of instructional lectures and participant driven discussions, class members will gain a fuller understanding of and appreciation for the practical challenges of creating and sustaining a performance culture in today’s federal environment, and begin developing the skills required to contribute effectively to their current or future employers’ efforts in this regard.
