Episode Details

The Office of Personnel Management is ending its centralized Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey (FEVS), shifting responsibility to individual agencies. Former OPM HR Quality Services Management Office Director Steve Krauss explains why this change could become a major opportunity—or a significant challenge—for federal organizations. He discusses how agencies can collect more timely, actionable workforce data, the importance of building strong data analytics capabilities, and why communities of practice remain essential across government. Krauss also explores how employee feedback fits into OPM's broader vision for a government-wide workforce data ecosystem that supports skills-based talent management and smarter human capital decisions.
