Determination of Research Priorities and Documentation of Information Sources for Army Civilian Personnel Management
Abstract
This report describes the first stage of a multiyear research program. The goal of the overall program is to develop products that will help the Army manage its civilian workforce. Three requirements of this initial stage were to (a) identify research project and products that offer the highest benefit to Army sponsors and users, (b) document the availability and quality of information pertaining to those projects, and (c) allocate resources to accomplish the goals of the projects. The most beneficial research projects focused on the selection, training, and development of leaders, supervisors, and managers of the Army civilian workforce. This report documents the methods and results of the focusing process and presents a prototype data index that catalogs the Army civilian personnel data sources and data elements. Keywords: Cost analysis; Benefit analysis; Civilian personnel management; Data index; Leadership research; Management training and development; Personnel research; Personnel selection and placement; Prioritization of research.
