Build a workforce to support your digital journey

New ways of working in the digital era require government workers and leaders to have different skills. Employee expectations have evolved, making it necessary for government organizations to rethink their culture and employee value proposition. With one-third of the federal workforce eligible to retire by 2025 and the number of graduates going into federal, state, and local jobs dropping, some government agencies are seeing the pipeline of new recruits dwindling.
