Under the title "Accelerating the Gears of Transformation", the Office of Personnel Management has developed three new toolsets intended for managers and HR departments. They provide practical advice and guidelines to help Federal workplaces reskill/upskill employees due to changing technology and workforce needs.

Whereas the gap between the duties performed by women and men in Japan's civil service was still quite wide only a few years ago, it is narrowing sharply at every level. The country's fast-track leadership scheme, which is more concentrated over time, and a recent policy encouraging the employment of women (called "womenomics") are helping to gradually increase the percentage of women. 

The British government is encouraging senior managers and executives to accept secondment to advanced industrial and service sectors. The goal is to allow senior civil service leaders to "witness the benefits of a culture of experimentation and empowering them to adopt these practices when they return to government”. It is expected that this will provide professional experience that will enhance these managers' career paths.
