2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the

including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;

use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
Background
OPM’s Human Resources Strategy and
Evaluation Solutions performs
assessment and related consultation
activities for Federal agencies on a
reimbursable basis. The assessments are
authorized by various statutes and
regulations: section 4702 of title 5,
U.S.C.; E.O. 12862; E.O. 13715; section
1128 of the National Defense
Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2004,
Public Law 108–136; 5 U.S.C. 1101 note,
1103(a)(5), 1104, 1302, 3301, 3302,
4702, 7701 note; E.O. 13197, 66 FR
7853, 3 CFR, 2001 Comp., p. 748; E.O.
10577, 12 FR 1259, 3 CFR, 1954–1958
Comp., p. 218; and section 4703 of title
5, United States Code.
This collection request includes
surveys we currently use and plan to
use during the next three years to
measure Federal leaders’ effectiveness.
These surveys all measure leadership
characteristics. Non-Federal
respondents will almost never receive
more than one of these surveys. All
these surveys consist of Likert-type,
mark-one, and mark-all-that-apply
items, and may include a small number
of open-ended comment items. OPM’s
Leadership 360TM assessment measures
the 28 competencies that comprise the
five Executive Core Qualifications and
Fundamental Competencies in the OPM
leadership model. The OPM Leadership
360TM consists of 116 items and is
almost never customized, although
customization to meet an agency’s needs
is possible. OPM’s Leadership Potential
Assessment consists of 103 items
focused on identifying individuals
ready to move into supervisory
positions. OPM’s Personality
Assessment for Leaders consists of 236
items that measure leadership
personality characteristics within a ‘‘Big
5’’ framework. OPM’s Leadership for
Engagement and Leadership for
Inclusion surveys consist of 140 items
that measure 30 leadership behaviors
and employees’ perceptions of their

work unit related to engagement and
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and
Accessibility (DEIA), respectively. The
DEIA Pulse Survey consists of 50 items
that provide leaders with information
related to the demographics of their
workforce, perceptions of the leader’s
policies, procedures, and practices
related to DEIA, and attitudes toward
working in the leader’s organization.
These assessments are almost always
administered electronically.
Three new surveys are being added to
this collection: The Leadership for
Inclusion Survey (L4I), the Leadership
for Engagement Survey (L4E), and the
DEIA Pulse Survey. For the remaining
three surveys the following minor
updates, which did not impact the
burden estimate, have been made:
The OPM Leadership 360TM survey
content was reviewed and some changes
were made, including refreshing some
items to update the language and/or
better reflect current terminology,
revamping the response scale in an
effort to increase response variance, and
changing some item language to make it
more gender neutral (e.g., updated
language such as ‘‘he or she’’ to ‘‘they’’).
For the Leadership Potential
Assessment, some item language was
changed to make it more gender neutral
(e.g., updated language such as ‘‘he or
she’’ to ‘‘they’’).
Minor changes were also made to the
instructions of the Leadership Profiler to
match our new survey platform.
