Being in government in the early part of this decade has proven arduous for federal employees. The recent government shutdown, sequestration and an uncooperative congress controlling budgets make for uncertainty and frustration, especially for those in management, with employees asking questions.
But, a new style of manager is emerging in government. This modern manager, as Government Executive's Kellie Lunney writes in the latest issue of the magazine, is adaptable, open and able to work within the confines of the changing world of government management. Lunney uses examples from the FBI and Treasury to illustrate the changing nature of the federal manager.
Lunney spoke with host Ross Gianfortune about her Government Executive cover story and the nature of management in the modern federal government.
