Taking Steps to Create More Equity in Government

The Office of Personnel Management recently issued guidance to agencies seeking to implement the portion of an executive order encouraging improved diversity and inclusion efforts across the government. OPM chief Kiran Ahuja noted in the guidance that  agencies “should elevate” diversity and inclusion within their organizations, including by establishing the chief diversity officer or diversity and inclusion officer within their agency.
