Advisory Group, briefed the CSP/ORD on the objectives of the group,
This group was set up by Colonel White for the DCI and consisted of
three members of each Directorate and three members from th.e. DCI. The
group was set up, basically, to take up the problem of communication
within the Agency and discuss personnel management, management training,
and career development, Some of the highlights of, his talk were as
follows:
a, There is no Career Development Program in the Agency,
b. Each Directorate, with the exception of DDP, stated.
there was no reason why employees could not transfer
from one Directorate to another,
c, ADP will allow their people to transfer out but will
not allow people to transfer in to the Directorate.
d. Eighty percent of the group's discussion centered on
the problems of DDP.

8. stated, at the conclusion of

that he would like to see a report on what
ha. told the
CSP sent to the younger employees of ORD,
stated
that
25X1A9a
it was the decision of the group that there would be no
done on the activities of the group,
"report
back"
9. MBSD/ORD then briefed the CSP on his work
with the committee established to handle a request from the President
as to how young people are being utilized within the Agency, One man
from each Directorate was appointed to come up with prudent information,
stated that he had requested statistics from Office of
Personnel on those people, 35 years and under, GS-8 and above, who
entered on duty with the Agency in 1965, 1966 and 1967. He wanted to
find out how many of these people were still with the Agency in the
spring of 1970, He said he found the average age for an employee
entering on duty with the Agency at that time averaged about 27 years
old, also stated he would guess that ih most cases it
was not their first job. In the final analysis, he found that 30%
of DD/S&T people, who came to the Agency between 1965 and 1967, turned
around and left the Agency. The most cited reasons, accounting for
70%, fell in the general category of job dissatisfaction; with a
subcategory of insufficient challenge. The question was, after this
information was obtained, whether this percentage rate of turnover
was too high or too low.
10. stated that he was very impressed by the presentation
made by both He felt that he had. learned
a great deal from them and felt that the CSP might benefit by having
ORD people come in on an ad hoc basis and talk about their views,
