25X1A9a 6. stated that the Special Panel Evaluation
and Promotion Schedule for Secretarial and Clerical Personnel
and the Clerical Rating Sheets were distributed to the Career
Service Panel members for their information. He further
stated that the information contained in the rating sheets
had been included in the Performance Appraisal Criteria for 25X1A9a
secretarial and clerical personnel dated 30 April 1973, but
the point system had been omitted. pointed out to
25X1A9a the Panel members that the sheets now contain the points in
various categories for each grade level. Appropriate clerical
rating sheets, stated will be sent to each division
by C/SS/ORD. The Panel members were requested to complete
25X1A9a these sheets and return them to C/SS/ORD as soon as possible.
stated this was a test and if each person who
would normally fill out a fitness report would complete the
rating sheet, the Special Panel would com ile the figures 25X1A9a
and come up with a ranking list, also assured the
Panel members that the Special Panel would also review the
fitness reports done on the secretarial personnel. He also
told the Panel members that as this system of evaluation of
secretarial personnel enters into a regular schedule,
25X1A9a appropriate ratin sheets will be issued with the fitness
reports. told the CSP members that the Special
Panel has benefited greatly from the work done in the CSP,
and the Special Panel is using many of the techniques that
have been generated in the Career Service Panel.

for DSP/ORD, from GS-12 to GS-13.

he also had been in grade for 53 months. felt that
the CSP/ORD should consider the promotion action for 25X1A9a
in line of the fact that this "out-of-sight, out-of-mind"
concept may have occurred in his particular case. The Panel

discussed the memorandum written by ORD-3000-73,
25X1A9a dated 3 July 1973 on comments made by the Chairman, CSP in
his memorandum dated 29 June 1973, relating to the consideration
for promotion of The Panel reviewed the grade 25X1A9a
level of young professionals with a Ph.D., entering on dut
with the Agency which is a GS-12. It was noted that
was 7th on the ranking list for GS-12s. It was the general
25X1A9a opinion of the Panel that the promotion was being recommended
because of time in grade, that he had performed 25X1A9a
well in the past as his fitness reports reflect and he had
done well in Vietnam and in his training. training
at George Washington University from Januar 1972 - March 1973
was discussed. It was noted that has not received 25X1A9a
his Doctor of Science (D.Sc.) degree in electrical engineering,
but has completed the course requirements and passed his 25X1A9a
qualifying examinations. It was noted that has
completed two-thirds of the research required and has stated
that he believes he can finish the remaining research in 25X1A9a
evening classes in about six to nine months.
commented that if ORD sends people off to training that
activity is as much a direct assignment as having a man take
on a project. He also stated that there is headroom available.
The Panel was told that has returned to duty and 25X1A9a

25X1A9a as shown on the summation of the first review results on the
ranking worksheets for GS-14s. (Copy attached) Deviations
in ranking were noted by on and
25X1A9a The general opinion of the Panel was that
these men were not known and most of the members were not
familiar with the work performance of these men. Most of
the Panel members seem to feel that they didn't know certain
individuals well enough when they were doing their competitive
evaluation.

25
evaluated robabl because he was misassigned. He stated
25X1A9a that capabilities have not been used
properly. stated he has been given duties in 25X1A9a
PAS/ORD, other than what is being done by
25X1A9a and he has performed his job with thought and planning.
felt that this isolation might have been the
25X1A9a reason why people do not know him and what he can do. 25X1A9a
further stated he felt that 25X1A9a
should be rated ahead of also
felt that he should recommend to the D/ORD that 25X1A9a
25X1A9a should be transferred to other
ORD divisions for greater exposure and top men such as 25X1A9a
perhaps
be moved into the Programs Analysis Staff in order that
25X1A9a they might gain this experience. 25X1A9a
11. thought that might also
be in the same category as
where people did not know them or the job they were performing.
25X1A9a He also stated that is carrying a very heavy 25X1A9a
management load, and he regularly sits in at staff conferences
in another office.
25X1A9a 12. stated there are too many people on
the GS-14 list who are in management and technical jobs,
and they are being rated together. He felt that these
people were engaged in activities that were too diverse
to be compared to one another.
13. The Panel members prepared the following chart:

25X1A9a 13. (Continued)
stated that the dashed lines drawn above indicated
in his mind the men who probably would never make another
grade jump. Under the TECHNICAL category, he felt these men
should be scientists in the true sense, and they should
become scientific specialists. He further stated that he
felt the Panel had two sets of problems: 1) to get these
25X1A9a men rated properly, and 2) what will the Panel do about the
two categories of people we have. He asked the Panel if the
supervisors should talk to these people about the two paths
to follow or should ORD try to merge the two categories.
25X1A9a stated he felt that
and would have to change, or t ey would never make
another grade. The Panel also discussed people such as
25X1A9a who might be more suitable for
one category than the one the Panel might list him under.
25X1A9a 14. stated that he felt the Panel needed some
office guidelines for people in the technical and management
categories because the GS-14 level becomes critical as these
people move up to the GS-15 level. felt the CSP
members should take more time and get away from the office
to further evaluate these people. He also suggested that he
felt the Panel should think about a system whereby each
25X1A9a member would receive a certain number of names from the
evaluation lists in order that he might study them and get
25X1A6a to know them. inquired of the Panel if they wanted
to take the time away from their assignments and go down to
to do this. Some of the members felt it might be
25X1A9a worthwhile. stated he would give further thought
to the matter.
25X1A9a 15. stated that as a result of the discussion
above, he woul request the CSP members to go through their
competitive evaluation ranking lists again and generate their
promotability list for the next CSP meeting. The members were
asked to submit this paperwork as soon as possible.
