U.S. Intelligence Community's Five Year Strategic Human Capital Plan

摘要

The 21st century demands that those who serve in the agencies of the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC), both military and civilian, be capable of rapidly collecting and analyzing intelligence in a threat environment that is becoming exponentially more complex, volatile, and interconnected. The National Intelligence Strategy (NIS) requires a 5-year human capital strategy that will build an agile, 'all source' workforce by projecting and planning for mission critical human resource requirements (both quantitative and qualitative); determine the optimum mix of military, civilian, contractor, and other human resources necessary to meet those requirements; and create an overarching IC- wide human resource policy and information architecture that enables the IC and its components to rapidly acquire, develop, integrate, and deploy its human resources within and across organizational lines to accomplish the mission. The human capital strategy will attract and retain the best and brightest candidates, recognizing and rewarding technical expertise, performance excellence, integrity, and commitment to service. It will provide enterprise- wide opportunities for professional growth and leadership development that will help realize (and use) the full potential of its employees, and encourage initiative, innovation, resourcefulness, and resilience among the members of the IC and those who lead them. The plan will strengthen the IC by creating a culture of personal, professional, technical, and managerial leadership at all organizational levels. It will foster an IC-wide ethos that values selfless service, integrity, and mission accountability, and will embody those values in a transformational, 21st century leadership corps that engenders excellence at all levels of the Community.
