Headlines:
- Not one size fits all.
- As much about learning as unlearning.
- Make it relevant to the audience; package message according.
- What leadership acts we needed / cultural change.
- Not training but knowledge transfer.
- Look at assessment tools and use their language (ex: OMB and the PART)
- Middle managers often the roadblock.
- Step out and execute; laggards; just need permission.
- Form interagency group to explore/develop guidance for federal knowledge transfer.
- Best practices; share knowledge (Army, GSA).
- The most effective sustainability progress will occur when federal agencies incorporate the concept into their own strategic planning processes.
- Sustainability needs to be reflected in the new employee orientation programs of all federal agencies.
