There is a human capital crisis in the federal government: more than 50 percent of federal civil servants will be eligible to retire in the next five years, and 71 percent of these are senior executives. Human capital—the accumulated value of an individual's intellect, knowledge, and experience—must be managed so it will not be lost. This book is an executive briefing that outlines how managers can develop asuccessful human capital strategy, drawing on lessons learned from analyzing existing strategies at several federal government agencies.
