MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Management and Services
SUBJECT : Personnel Practices Survey "Show and Tell"
REFERENCE : Memo fr Mr. Fisher to W. E. Colby dtd 21 Feb 1973, subj:
Policies and Procedures in Separate Components Applicable
Elsewhere
1. In attached Reference we suggested that the Office. of Personnel
serve as the logical "clearing house" for identification, review and
sharing of personnel information related to successful approaches
developed within the components and Career Services as well as the focal
point for assistance to operating managers in carrying out their
personnel management responsibilities. The Director agreed and asked
that we hold a yearly "show and tell" to publicize the information and
generate some action.
2. We have pursued the Personnel Practices Survey by initiating a
pilot program involving five-components. We have conducted interviews
with representatives of these components covering a wide range of personnel
issues. We have compiled our initial findings and are in the process of
analyzing them. In one of the OP objectives, we have established milestones
for completion of the Survey by Plans Staff/OP, in conjunction with its
other work, by the end of February 1975.
3. In order to fully meet the Director's objective of publicizing
Survey findings, it is necessary to finish the Survey before presenting
a fully comprehensive demonstration of its results. Taking this action
does not preclude, however, the early presentation within the next few
months of preliminary Survey results, especially those relating to certain
facets of Agency programs that have been recently instituted but not
yet fully implemented, e.g., PDP, APP and PASG recommendations.
4. We suggest that a one-day interim "show and tell" be held on
the subjects of Training Models and Directorate-wide career. counseling.
As you are aware, the former is a part of PDP, and the latter is a new
requirement, originating from approval of the PASG Report. To insure a
productive show and tell, we recommend that the component heads be
asked to send a personnel representative.
This document becomes unclassified
upon separation from attachment.

5. Attached is a tentative format. We have not had time to
discuss it with affected components or to make arrangements, including
speakers.
6. If this approach is satisfactory, we will try to arrange the
"show and tell" in the suggested format, for presentation by the end
