註釋This book deals with the effects that the baby boom is having in the federal service which managers will have to deal with. The author reports that there is a serious morale problem which, if left unchecked, will result in declining productivity and growing ineffectiveness. At the crux of the problem is evidence that inflation and policies of attrition have not only reduced the influx of college graduates into the lower levels of the public service, but have also put the lid on the rapid rate of promotion that was prevelant in the 1970's. The bottle-neck created by decision makers at higher levels who can no longer advance upward is being felt like a chain reaction throughout the system. There are indications that those who occupy both upper and lower levels of the public service hierarchy feel trapped in their current positions. The author puts forth a number of proposals she thinks will help to restore motivation and incentive in the federal bureaucracy. Average reading.
