From page 11: &quot;Promoting our troops is important, and so is making sure we promote the best officers with the right skillsets for the future. So, within the limits of the law, we will emphasize broader milestone achievement as the foundation for promotion eligibility. Doing so increases competition and opportunity, allowing the best to rise to the top, regardless of when they were commissioned. As a long-term solution, we are drafting a legislative proposal for FY’17 to eliminate officer management by year group. This allows those who are not ready for promotion to continue to serve in the same paygrade longer, or for those ready, to advance through the system faster. A “golden” path of inflexible career wickets, year groups, and promotion zones will no longer determine your success. Your performance will decide your timeline for promotion and leadership assignments.&quot; <br /><br />Is this the beginning of the end of bad talent management in DoD? 2015-05-14T01:37:07-04:00 MAJ Private RallyPoint Member 666524
