(October 7, 2015) – The Army is working to improve the way it acquires, employs, develops, and retains human capital to optimize the talent management of all Army Professionals and teams for their mutual benefit so they can thrive and “Win in a Complex World.”

In support of this vision, the U.S. Army Combined Arms Center has published the Talent Management Concept of Operations for Force 2025 and Beyond. The U.S. Army Operating Concept institutes Force 2025 and Beyond (F2025B) as the Army’s comprehensive effort for changing and improving land power capabilities in support of the joint force.

The Army Human Dimension Strategy establishes the development of a F2025B Talent Management Strategy for the Army Total Force as a required key task. This strategy must establish the talent management principles that will be applied to the core functions of the Army’s human capital management enterprise and the career life cycle of all Army Professionals through a holistic, integrated approach.

These core functions are workforce planning, acquisition, development, employment, and retention. This strategy must establish a framework for managing talent management systems and required capabilities. It must identify the ways and mean s for integrating talent management solutions across doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leadership, personnel, facilities, and policy (DOTMLPF-P) domains.

Lastly, an effective talent management strategy must facilitate comprehensive organizational transformation. The fundamental purpose of this concept of operations is to inform the development of an Army Talent Management Strategy.
