Inspection / Evaluation
Description
The Office of the Inspector General conducted a review of Learning, Growth, and Management (LG&M) to identify strengths and risks that could impact LG&M's organizational effectiveness. Our evaluation identified strengths within the LG&M organization related to (1) organizational alignment, (2) collaboration within the departments, (3) LG&M management support of employees, and (4) positive relationships with other organizations. However, we also identified employee engagement risks related to management communication and morale that, if left unaddressed, could stifle the maturity of LG&M programs and negatively affect the ability of LG&M to contribute to the mission of the Chief Human Resources Office. Specifically, some individuals mentioned (1) communication issues related to perception of having unproductive meetings and the need for communicating through direct supervisors prior to communicating to other levels of management and (2) low morale due to potential workload fatigue, which affected employee development opportunities.
