Building a Government Leadership Talent Pipeline

Building a Government Leadership Talent Pipeline

Author: GovExec March 17, 2023 Duration: 25:58

The challenges to building a talent pipeline in government are not new, but they remain a huge part of human capital management in the public sector. Though its opportunities for career development and relative security separate public service from the private sector, government continues to struggle to cultivate young leadership. Building a talent pipeline will be crucial for the federal government to continue to modernize and serve the public mission.

As part of Government Executive Media Group's Workforce Summit event recently, GovExec Daily's Adam Butler spoke to Michelle Amante, Vice President, Federal Workforce Programs, Partnership for Public Service. In this episode, you'll hear part of their conversation about building a talent pipeline.
