Future of Work Concept: Maintaining a Competitive Edge for the Future

Abstract

Throughout 2020, Army leadership affirmed people as the #1 priority. The Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM) has invested significant energy in the development of the DEVCOM Talent Management Strategy and has made operationalizing Talent Management a top priority, specifically how we acquire, employ, and engage our talent to ensure we can retain the world class talent we have and attract the new talent we need. Consideration of the future of work is a natural component of our initiative to operationalize Talent Management and has been pushed to the forefront as we lead our way through the COVID-19 pandemic, implementing a range of necessary measures to both protect the health of our Soldiers, civilians, and contractors, and to continue executing our mission. The management of the tension between these two priorities and the response of our team has been impressive and effective. It is imperative for the Command that we define an enduring future of work concept beyond the current pandemic that builds on what we have learned and maximizes our ability to execute our mission.
