Forgive me for a little promotion of one of our events. A big one, actually -- our annual Excellence in Government conference. This year, it's actually two one-day conferences, focusing on key issues in federal management. The first, devoted to human capital topics, is coming up on May 12. Here are some of the featured tracks:


  • Bring on the Next Generation: Did Your Agency Have You at Hello?

  • Why Some Leaders Thrive Where Others Fail in Times of Transition

  • The ME Factor: Social Networking, Virtual Worlds

  • Reducing Risk during the Presidential Transition in a Post-9/11 Environment

  • "The Office:" Working Across Cultures & Generations

  • Data-Driven Decision-Making in a Flexible Multisector Environment

Here's a schedule of all the day's events.

The conference will be held at the Ronald Reagan building in Washington. Here's full registration information.

"Excellence in government." An oxymoron.
