The message is clear: annual reviews alone aren’t going to cut it. Federal agencies are reimagining how they evaluate\, develop\, and support their workforces in response to the recognition that annual performance reviews alone aren’t enough. As expectations for accountability\, engagement\, and mission delivery evolve\, agencies are empowering supervisors to lead more frequent\, meaningful feedback conversations using data-driven insights to track performance drivers. By empowering supervisors with better tools and training\, applying workforce analytics\, and encouraging open performance-based dialogue\, agencies are aiming to boost engagement\, retention\, and mission outcomes. \nThis session will bring together agency leaders and workforce experts from OPM and other federal entities to share how they plan to put these ideas into practice—what’s working\, what’s changing on the ground\, and how lessons learned can help drive a stronger\, more adaptable federal workforce. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Speakers:\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Samantha Adrignola\n					Manager\, Strategic Consulting Program\, U.S. Office of Personnel Management \n					\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Howard Spira\n					Chief Information Officer\, Export-Import Bank of the United States \n					\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Britta Wilhelmsen\n					Strategy & Enablement Lead\, Government Sector\, BetterUp \n					\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Rudolf Rojas\n					Information Technology Manager\, U.S. Department of Agriculture \n					\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Andrew Petry\n					Acting Deputy Chief Information Officer\, Office of Resource Management\, Office of the Chief Information Officer\, U.S. Department of Energy \n					\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Moderator: Kiersten Patton\n					ATARC Consultant  \n					\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Register\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Zoom for Government enables ATARC remote collaboration opportunities through its cloud platform for video and audio conferencing\, chats and webinars across all devices.

This discussion will explore how organizations are moving beyond perimeter-based models to adopt dynamic\, identity-driven architectures that can that support mission resilience – especially in contested\, disconnected\, intermittent\, and limited (DDIL) environments. From governance\, integration and automation to visibility and enforcement at the tactical edge\, panelists will share how to translate Zero Trust principles into real-world\, scalable outcomes – without disrupting mission performance. \nJoin us for a high-level conversation designed for federal CIOs\, CISOs\, and senior IT leaders charting the path forward. This session will offer actionable insights on prioritizing investments\, aligning stakeholders\, and accelerating Zero Trust maturity—turning mandates into meaningful security transformation across domains and alliances. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Speakers:\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Dr. Ceasar Jackson\n					Senior Data Scientist\, CDM-Wide Mission Support\, U.S. Air Force \n					\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Vicente Tur-Rojas\n					Director for Security Management\, Chief Information Security Officer\, U.S. Department of Defense \n					\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					Moderator: Kiersten Patton\n					ATARC Consultant  \n					\n					\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Register\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Zoom for Government enables ATARC remote collaboration opportunities through its cloud platform for video and audio conferencing\, chats and webinars across all devices.
