Status of Managing in CIA
An "All DA" run of Managing in CIA took place 27-29 June for GS-10
and under supervisors. The overall ratings for value and clarity were
4.67 and 4.62 out of 5. The managers-in-residence, OP,
Senior Personnel Officer, DA; and OIT,
maintained a high degree of productive interaction with the 22 students
throughout the three days. The instruction team consisted of
Three usual characteristics of GS-10 and below supervisors were
evident:
--numerous complaints about course hours due to travel and child care
considerations;
--lower scores on the task force planning exercise than GS-11 and
above managers;
--less written action planning in the in-box exercise.
As is the norm for GS-10 and below runnings, the students seemed
generally more enlightened and excited by their "new" learnings than
their more senior graded bretheren. Students were surprised at the
differing policies and procedures within their Directorate regarding
PARs, panels and career services and generally felt they had broadened
their knowledge about the DA by exchanging information with personnel
125X1 from other offices.
A GS-11 and above run of Managing in CIA took place 6-8 July. There
were 26 students and each Directorate was respresented (D0-2; DA-8;
DSU-13; and DI-3). The overall ratings for value and clarity were 4.38
25X1 and 4.50. Associate Deputy Director for Recruitment,
OP, completed her second running as a manager-in-residence. This class
contained more technical/engineering "types" than usual which lent a
discernable flavor of "prove it with numbers" and "focus on substance" to
the class. It proved very difficult to initiate discussion about the
"feelings" generated by the in-box or the process used by the task force
exercise groups. Both discussions instead focused heavily on substantive
problems and what needed to be done to resolve them expeditiously. This
group achieved a new "low" (the lower the score the better) on the task
force planning exercise (engineers do it better!!). The instruction team
25X1 consisted of chair;

On 7 and 8 July, attended the "Presidential

of Personnel Management. Topics covered included:

--the organization of the White House staff
--the role of OMB
--presidential decision-making styles
--the presidency and management reform
Lawrence O'Rourke, White House Correspondent for the St. Louis
Post-Dispatch, addressed the seminar on "The Presidency and The Media".
Mr. O'Rourke was candid but friendly, yet the audience of over 40 senior
officers from throughout the Federal Bureaucracy was somewhat hostile,
challenging many of his statements. One would have thought it was a CIA
audience! Richard J. Bishiyian, Boston University's College of
Communication, spoke on "Presidential Transitions: Lessons Learned". He
extended an invitation to OTE to attend a one-day session on "Preparing
