PERTINENT CORNERSTONE INFORMATION
As a component of the Department of Homeland
Security, U.S. Coast Guard has been mandated to deliver to their new and
seasoned supervisors, both military and civilian, a supervisory training
program that provides leadership training to anyone supervising a
civilian.
About the Program
Secretary
Napolitano established the Leader Development Program Office in May 2010
under the Office of the Chief Human Capital Officer in order to elevate
the importance of leader effectiveness across DHS as an investment in
mission achievement. Through the dedicated efforts of cross-Component
working groups, the DHS Leader Development Program was established
around a DHS-specific Leader Development Framework and Leader
Development Competencies. This Framework identified five levels of DHS
leaders—Team Member, Team Lead, Supervisor, Manager, and Executive—and
high-level roadmaps for foundational and best-practice developmental
activities at each level. The purpose of the Leader Development Program
is to ensure all DHS Components collaborate to support a consistent
investment in the development of every leader across the Department.
Deputy
Secretary Lute approved the Leader Development Framework in January 2011
and provided direction for the path forward. She prioritized the
construction and implementation of the Cornerstone Program, which
provides a developmental roadmap for new and seasoned supervisors at all
levels across the Department, as the first and most critical element of
the Framework. The Cornerstone Program is designed to take a baseline
requirements approach in order to optimize the many established leader
development activities already in place across the Department, and
highlight opportunities for increasingly efficient, effective, and
consistent development—while still supporting Component-specific
mission-centric leader development as necessary. This approach allows
Components to identify the best way for their target audiences to meet
these requirements, whether through existing training, new developmental
activities, collaborative cross-Component programming, or a combination.
The DHS/USCG Cornerstone Program includes:
· Understanding the DHS Leadership Commitment (non-supervisory audiences)
· Supervisory Onboarding: L90X
· Fundamentals of DHS Leadership
· Continuous Supervisory Leader Development
