Dear Federal, State and Local Government HR Professionals,

Today’s government leaders need to address two important challenges. They need to address a budget crisis that requires them to find opportunities to reduce costs without sacrificing the mission. At the same time, they need to address the changing demographics of the government workforce, where an upcoming flood of retirements and the entry of a younger generation of workers are challenging our ideas about when, where, and how work is done. It’s clear that the time has come to consider what the 21st century workplace will be, and to identify what roles telework, alternative work schedules, and innovative work arrangements will play in that world.

The good news is that many organizations are already experimenting with innovative approaches to addressing the challenges we face.  They are creating answers to such questions as: How do I define the right approach to workplace flexibility for my organization’s culture, mission, and workforce? What type of policies do I need to govern these new flexibilities? How do I give managers and staff the skills they need to ensure that staff performance will not be compromised in a more flexible work environment?  And how do I create a convincing business case that proves to senior leadership that changing our vision of the workplace will benefit the entire organization?

How Will This Training Help You and Your Organization?

Join us at the Telework in Government Training on November 6-9, 2012 in Washington, DC, where we will provide you with insight into the tools and techniques that organizations are using to build new, more flexible work environments for their employees. You will learn first-hand from experienced government leaders how they have met the challenges of defining their vision of a “workplace of the future,” and how you, too, can successfully implement this vision. Specifically, you will hear how the:

• Federal Aviation Administration built an effective telework program while reducing costs and improving work/life balance
• U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs overcame the challenge of changing their agency’s culture to embrace telework
• Federal Housing Finance Agency was able to measure performance both on and offsite
• U.S. Department of the Interior implemented their telework program
  department-wide
