In 2007, the Partnership for Public Service and Grant Thornton LLP, interviewed federal government chief human capital officers (CHCOs), deputy CHCOs and other key human resource advisors to learn firsthand about critical issues in federal human capital management. The 2007 survey focused on the President’s Management Agenda, the general environment and laid the groundwork for future surveys. In 2008, we repeated the survey and focused on issues surrounding the impending presidential transition. While many CHCOs are career civil servants, some are political appointees who will leave the federal government and pass their duties on to new leaders. In this context, we hope the results of this year’s survey will be particularly useful as the new administration takes the reins.
