    Congrats to Interior! This is like the U.S. Men's Hockey Team winning the gold in 1980 -- a Miracle of Management!

    I am old school HR. I would prefer working in an organization deemed by OMB and OPM to be all red where the employees have esprit de corp., enjoy their work, know their mission, and where the place is alive and humming rather than an organization deemed by OMB and OPM to be all green and a morgue. The set of topics being judged were established by accountants as the most valuable assets to gov't: e-gov, outsourcing, mission performance evaluation etc... And even the HR topics are accountant driven.

    Call me silly, but from an HR perspective the administration is grading the wrong set of criteria. What is being counted and evaluated are not topics that could ever make me want to stay in federal service.

    From an HR perspective a truer measure of success are the topics that accountants cannot measure-- what is a knowledgeable, high performing, high interest and motivated workforce worth-- as VISA would say, "priceless."
