2. Encourage agencies to establish productivity gainsharing programs called Federal Performance Sharing to support the reinvention and change effort. (1) The director of the Federal Quality Institute should form, sponsor, and support a temporary team of government experts to plan and implement a six-month campaign to encourage establishment of gainsharing programs, called Federal Performance Sharing, by agencies governmentwide. To achieve its objective, the team may conduct briefings, develop training programs, organize conferences, consult/provide technical assistance, develop information systems, develop reporting systems, and organize interagency networks. Performance sharing should be a cooperative effort between employees and managers. Employees and their representatives must be involved in the creation, design, and implementation of agency-based Federal Performance Sharing, which, in the case of employees represented by an employee union, will require collective bargaining. Performance sharing could be an important incentive for employees and managers to implement National Performance Review (NPR) recommendations; if by implementing NPR recommendations, employees and managers can make government work better and cost less, they can share in the savings. Performance sharing emphasizes results, mission accomplishment, and empowerment, and is an appropriate incentive for reinvention.
