      Conference Registration and Continental Breakfast


      8:30
      KEYNOTE ADDRESS: Insight on the New Management Agenda
      “We can no longer afford to sustain the old ways when we know there are new and more efficient ways to
      getting the job done,” said President Barack Obama. The theme of change has moved beyond the campaign to
      become the central motif of Obama’s presidency. One of the biggest changes Obama has promised to make is a
      fundamental reconfiguration of former President George W. Bush’s Management Agenda. Obama has pledged to
      eliminate ideological performance goals and replace them with goals Americans care about and that are based on
      congressional intent and feedback from those served by government programs. Although few would disagree with
      the reasoning, it is unclear how we will reach this goal. This Keynote will offer insights into Obama’s Management
      Agenda and what government managers and employees should expect moving forward.



      9:30
      LEADERSHIP PANEL: Understand Federal Policy and Achieve
      Program Results
      There is one major question looming at the start of an Administration: which policies and programs should be kept
      and which need to be modified or even thrown out? Each administration leaves a legacy of performance mandates
      and policy outcomes for the next, but what does Obama need to do to achieve real improvement in federal policy
      and program outcomes? And more importantly, who is responsible for achieving these improvements? Is it up to
      senior officials and agency executives or is it up to the OMB? During this Leadership Panel, you will hear leading
      federal policy experts discuss concrete ways to achieve desired policy outcomes.



      10:45
      Break and Refreshments


      11:00
      SPOTLIGHT ON CONGRESS: Examine the Congressional Appropriations
      Process and Its Impact on Your Agency
      “No money should be drawn from the treasury, but in consequence of appropriations made by law” states the United
      States Constitution. In theory, appropriations are necessary to fund programs that keep Americans safe, educated
      and secure. But with a national deficit approaching $1 trillion, are tax dollars really being put to their best use?
      Obama’s pledge to conduct a line by line review of the federal budget to seek programs that are not performing and
      to eliminate earmarks has been loud and clear, and its promise of eliminating waste has been aimed at Congress.
      There are new ideas and mandates on where and how government money will be spent and this session will explore
      the impact those policies will have on your agency.

      Continental Breakfast


      8:30
      KEYNOTE ADDRESS: Examine the Role of the New Chief Performance Officer
      and White House “SWAT Team”
      In these troubled economic times, the importance of measuring the effectiveness of government programs has
      never been more necessary. The appointment of the nation’s first Chief Performance Officer reflects the centrality of
      reducing waste and inefficiency in Obama’s presidency. In this newly created role, Nancy Killefer will be responsible
      for streamlining the processes of all government programs and restoring the American public’s trust during this
      economic crisis. For too long, millions of taxpayer dollars have been spent on poorly performing programs because
      of lack of oversight and accountability. This newly created position aims to make government more efficient,
      accountable and transparent.



      9:30
      LEADERSHIP PANEL: Discover New Ways to Overcome Budgetary
      Challenges and Fund Necessary Programs
      President Barack Obama has recently said it is time to rethink outmoded ways of doing things, that it’s time to
      embrace new systems and technologies and to take initiative in developing better practices. With the increased
      emphasis on eliminating programs that we don’t need and that don’t work, agency leaders cannot afford to sustain
      the old ways of doing things. Program directors need to step up and think of new and more efficient ways to fund
      and manage the programs within their federal agency.

      SPOTLIGHT ON CONGRESS: Build Your Congressional Relationships With
      Clear Performance Reporting
      The constant transitional leadership in the federal government is filled with instances of waste, mismanagement
      and lack of change and knowledge management. For history not to repeat itself, it will take cooperation between
      the new Administration and Congressional leadership, especially across party lines, to maintain and improve
      government performance. While Congress and the new Administration have a number of opportunities to provide
      their perspectives on specific performance issues and performance goals, opportunities also exist for Congress
      to enhance its focus to enable a more systematic assessment of key programs and performance goals. Agency
      executives must work to develop an effective strategy for obtaining and acting on congressional views on what to
      measure, how to measure it, and how to best present this information to a congressional audience.

WORKSHOPS
Friday, May 8, 2009


      Workshops are designed to be an interactive way for participants to learn the latest management techniques in order
      to implement them in their workplace. The workshops provide a platform to learn practical applications of current
      best practices. Space in these comprehensive workshops is limited, so be sure to reserve your seat today.

      8:30
      Workshop A: Strategic Planning in Government
      The quality of an agency’s strategic plan sets the course for its performance management efforts from that point
      on. Implementing a strong strategic plan that clearly defines the mission and goals of your organization is the first
      step to improving performance. By aligning your organization’s performance goals with your strategic plan, you
      will be able to validate your program’s existence to all stakeholders and ensure tangible results for your agency.
      • Discover why traditional strategic planning processes often fall short of delivering results
      • Identify the characteristics and requirements of successful strategic plans, planning processes and implementation
      • Clearly communicate agency priorities and goals to all stakeholders
      • Develop results-oriented strategies to achieve departmental outcomes
      • Appoint initiative owners to keep strategic initiatives on track




      Workshop B: Program Evaluation in Government
      Every government agency is required to measure and manage their program’s performance. However, it is what to
      do with the data you’ve collected that is often the difficult part. After implementing a performance measurement
      system for your program, there are several questions that every manager should ask: How sure are you that you
      are measuring the right things? Is your program performing activities that are not aligned with its mission? A
      strong program evaluation framework will ensure that your agency is accurately assessing all programs.
      • Learn to tailor evaluations to your agency’s needs to improve program performance every year
      • Outline a formal framework for conducting program evaluations
      • Demonstrate how measures relate to inputs, outputs, impacts and outcomes
      • Define individual program success and the consequences of failure
      • Create a performance-based evaluation blueprint to assess program performance

  • 4. DAY ONE Wednesday, May 6, 2009 7: 30 Conference Registration and Continental Breakfast 8:30 KEYNOTE ADDRESS: Insight on the New Management Agenda “We can no longer afford to sustain the old ways when we know there are new and more efficient ways to getting the job done,” said President Barack Obama. The theme of change has moved beyond the campaign to become the central motif of Obama’s presidency. One of the biggest changes Obama has promised to make is a fundamental reconfiguration of former President George W. Bush’s Management Agenda. Obama has pledged to eliminate ideological performance goals and replace them with goals Americans care about and that are based on congressional intent and feedback from those served by government programs. Although few would disagree with the reasoning, it is unclear how we will reach this goal. This Keynote will offer insights into Obama’s Management Agenda and what government managers and employees should expect moving forward. 9:30 LEADERSHIP PANEL: Understand Federal Policy and Achieve Program Results There is one major question looming at the start of an Administration: which policies and programs should be kept and which need to be modified or even thrown out? Each administration leaves a legacy of performance mandates and policy outcomes for the next, but what does Obama need to do to achieve real improvement in federal policy and program outcomes? And more importantly, who is responsible for achieving these improvements? Is it up to senior officials and agency executives or is it up to the OMB? During this Leadership Panel, you will hear leading federal policy experts discuss concrete ways to achieve desired policy outcomes. 10:45 Break and Refreshments 11:00 SPOTLIGHT ON CONGRESS: Examine the Congressional Appropriations Process and Its Impact on Your Agency “No money should be drawn from the treasury, but in consequence of appropriations made by law” states the United States Constitution. In theory, appropriations are necessary to fund programs that keep Americans safe, educated and secure. But with a national deficit approaching $1 trillion, are tax dollars really being put to their best use? Obama’s pledge to conduct a line by line review of the federal budget to seek programs that are not performing and to eliminate earmarks has been loud and clear, and its promise of eliminating waste has been aimed at Congress. There are new ideas and mandates on where and how government money will be spent and this session will explore the impact those policies will have on your agency. www.InnoGOV.org

  • 6. DAY TWO Thursday, May 7, 2009 7:30 Continental Breakfast 8:30 KEYNOTE ADDRESS: Examine the Role of the New Chief Performance Officer and White House “SWAT Team” In these troubled economic times, the importance of measuring the effectiveness of government programs has never been more necessary. The appointment of the nation’s first Chief Performance Officer reflects the centrality of reducing waste and inefficiency in Obama’s presidency. In this newly created role, Nancy Killefer will be responsible for streamlining the processes of all government programs and restoring the American public’s trust during this economic crisis. For too long, millions of taxpayer dollars have been spent on poorly performing programs because of lack of oversight and accountability. This newly created position aims to make government more efficient, accountable and transparent. 9:30 LEADERSHIP PANEL: Discover New Ways to Overcome Budgetary Challenges and Fund Necessary Programs President Barack Obama has recently said it is time to rethink outmoded ways of doing things, that it’s time to embrace new systems and technologies and to take initiative in developing better practices. With the increased emphasis on eliminating programs that we don’t need and that don’t work, agency leaders cannot afford to sustain the old ways of doing things. Program directors need to step up and think of new and more efficient ways to fund and manage the programs within their federal agency. 10:45 Break and Refreshments 11:00 SPOTLIGHT ON CONGRESS: Build Your Congressional Relationships With Clear Performance Reporting The constant transitional leadership in the federal government is filled with instances of waste, mismanagement and lack of change and knowledge management. For history not to repeat itself, it will take cooperation between the new Administration and Congressional leadership, especially across party lines, to maintain and improve government performance. While Congress and the new Administration have a number of opportunities to provide their perspectives on specific performance issues and performance goals, opportunities also exist for Congress to enhance its focus to enable a more systematic assessment of key programs and performance goals. Agency executives must work to develop an effective strategy for obtaining and acting on congressional views on what to measure, how to measure it, and how to best present this information to a congressional audience. www.InnoGOV.org

POST- CONFERENCE WORKSHOPS Friday, May 8, 2009 Workshops are designed to be an interactive way for participants to learn the latest management techniques in order to implement them in their workplace. The workshops provide a platform to learn practical applications of current best practices. Space in these comprehensive workshops is limited, so be sure to reserve your seat today. 8:00 Workshop Registration and Continental Breakfast 8:30 Workshop A: Strategic Planning in Government The quality of an agency’s strategic plan sets the course for its performance management efforts from that point on. Implementing a strong strategic plan that clearly defines the mission and goals of your organization is the first step to improving performance. By aligning your organization’s performance goals with your strategic plan, you will be able to validate your program’s existence to all stakeholders and ensure tangible results for your agency. • Discover why traditional strategic planning processes often fall short of delivering results • Identify the characteristics and requirements of successful strategic plans, planning processes and implementation • Clearly communicate agency priorities and goals to all stakeholders • Develop results-oriented strategies to achieve departmental outcomes • Appoint initiative owners to keep strategic initiatives on track Workshop B: Program Evaluation in Government Every government agency is required to measure and manage their program’s performance. However, it is what to do with the data you’ve collected that is often the difficult part. After implementing a performance measurement system for your program, there are several questions that every manager should ask: How sure are you that you are measuring the right things? Is your program performing activities that are not aligned with its mission? A strong program evaluation framework will ensure that your agency is accurately assessing all programs. • Learn to tailor evaluations to your agency’s needs to improve program performance every year • Outline a formal framework for conducting program evaluations • Demonstrate how measures relate to inputs, outputs, impacts and outcomes • Define individual program success and the consequences of failure • Create a performance-based evaluation blueprint to assess program performance 12:00 Lunch Break/Workshop B Adjourns 3:00 Workshop A Adjourns www.InnoGOV.org
