In February, the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) shared a new Workforce of the Future Playbook supporting "a federal workforce that is inclusive, agile and engaged, and equipped with the right skills to deliver for the American people." The Playbook provides actions that agencies can take to build and equip the workforce of the future, incorporating new strategies and sharing best practices across government. OPM will make periodic updates on the Workforce of the Future webpage.

OPM is hosting free virtual informational webinars about specific topics from the playbook in the coming months to give managers and supervisors an opportunity to take a deep dive into the specific topics, such as implementing pooled hiring, skills-based hiring, cultivating early career talent, supporting employee health and well-being, fostering an inclusive work environment and much more. Hear from subject matter experts, learn from other agencies about promising practices, and engage in a lively Q&A session. The remaining schedule for the Workforce of the Future Playbook webinars is as follows:

• Wednesday, May 15 – 1:00 PM Eastern: Employee Mental Health & Well-Being

• Tuesday, June 11 – 11:00 AM Eastern: Strategic Recruitment

These webinars are free, virtual, and only for government employees; you must have a .gov or .mil e-mail to register. Please register at the following link to reserve your spot.
