Featuring state and municipal directors of personnel from across the country, this book provides a broad yet comprehensive overvi... more »ew of the unique challenges facing government departments of human resources as the Baby Boomer generation retires and skills deficiencies grow. These leaders articulate the importance of recruiting, retaining, and rewarding government employees by offering flexible work hours, technology improvements, competitive salaries and benefits, and opportunities for advancement. From approaching employment disputes to boosting morale during the current economic downturn, the authors share their advice for keeping the workplace a safe and positive environment for employees and preparing new generations to move into positions of leadership. The different niches represented and the breadth of perspectives presented enable readers to get inside some of the great minds in government today, as these experts reveal the secrets behind keeping government employment opportunities on the cutting edge. Inside the Minds provides readers with proven business intelligence from C-Level executives (Chairman, CEO, CFO, CMO, Partner) from the world's most respected companies nationwide, rather than third-party accounts from unknown authors and analysts. Each chapter is comparable to an essay/thought leadership piece and is a future-oriented look at where an industry, profession or topic is headed and the most important issues for the future. Through an exhaustive selection process, each author was hand-picked by the Inside the Minds editorial board to author a chapter for this book. Chapters Include: 1. Jeff C.
