Subject-. Summary of Proceedings of Working Groups
1. The following summaries of the activities and tentative conclusions
of the six Working Groups are distributed for the information and con-
venierce of all members of the Working Groups, so that fullest coordi-
nation and interchange of ideas and planning may be effected. The Carew'
Service Committee has authorized their distribution for the purposes in-
dicated above, but without having been formally approved or disapproved
by they Committee.
2. The Career Servicb Committee at its meeting on 17 December 1951
recommended that the members of the Working Groups study and consider
the following Summary of Proceedings of the Working Groups in light of
the following principles which represent a modification in the policies
that have previously been consideredo
a. The "Career Service Program" is actually composed of two basic
programs-o; endeavors. While these two programs should be developed
together if possible, it is inevitable that they will be developed at
different rates. They are:
1) A program to conduct nol personnel, training and management
affairs a little better tI...an we have yet been able to. Inherent
in this program are those matters which are basic to any well
managed Personnel Program. Among those matters are:
a) Recruitment and Plaa.ement
b) Employee Ratings
c Employee Relations and Counseling
d Normal Indoctrination and Training
e) Equitable application of improved benefits and prerogatives, et
This program should be equally applied to all (repeat all) staff
employees and staff agents of CIA without any distinction as to grade,
assignment, length of service, etc.
2) A program to discover and exp?.oit to the fullest, the talents and
potentialities of proven employees, e.g. a "Development Program" for
the purpose of ensuring to the Agency the best possible use of its
available manpower. Useful techniques in this program are:
a) Rotation
b) Re-training (i.e. seminar and refresher courses)
c) Duty assignments with on-the-job training
die Extension trainin including sabbatical leave, overseas
