About the Author Dr. Neal is a lifetime educator with five degrees, four of which are in education. He divides his time between South Florida and Western Pennsylvania enjoying family and friends. His pastimes include: traveling, cooking, reading, and swimming at Lake Worth Beach. Also, he can be found chasing a white ball around a golf course in a quest to find his swing. Currently, he is working on a fictional novel set in South America. What A Long Strange It's Been is based on a life in education, What a Long Strange It's Been details the joys, struggles, and heartbreak of navigating years as a dedicated educator. It also examines the shooting death of a beloved teacher at the hands of a fourteen-year-old student, its aftermath, and the school community's recovery. As shootings, particularly, at schools show no signs of stopping, there is a lesson to be learned.

On today's episode of The Daily Scoop Podcast, Jeff Neal, principal at ChiefHRO, LLC and former chief human capital officer at the Department of Homeland Security, discusses his takeaways from the recent data on workforce attrition in the federal government. The Internal Revenue Service could hire as many as 87,000 employees in the next decade if the Inflation Reduction Act becomes law, though The National Taxpayer Advocate says the agency isn't equipped to hire the quantity of people the agency needs. Michele Singer, CEO of Mindful Advance and former director of the Interior Business Center, explains the potential change management issues an agency could experience from that much growth.

On today's episode of The Daily Scoop Podcast, the new National Defense Strategy the DoD is working on could include a larger cyber component than it ever has before, OPM's new Talent Surge Executive Playbook will give agencies tools to hire and keep the employees they need, & a reorganization at DISA is turning out to be a shot in the arm for that agency's cloud office. The new National Defense Strategy the Defense Department is working on could include a larger cyber component than it ever has before. The Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for cyber policy, Mieke Eoyang, said recently the next NDS will include cyber as a tool. Senior Vice President for Defense Programs at Owl Cyber Defense and former USMC Deputy Commandant for Information, Dan O'Donohue explains what “cyber as a tool” means, and what he'll look for, cyber-wise, in the next NDS. The Office of Personnel Management's new Talent Surge Executive Playbook will give agencies tools to hire and keep the employees they need. It's out just a short time after the Biden administration listed “strengthening the federal workforce” as its number one priority in the President's Management Agenda Vision. Host of Chief HRO.com and former Chief Human Capital Officer at the Department of Homeland Security, Jeff Neal tells The Daily Scoop Podcast how agency leaders can make the most of the new (and old) concepts in the Playbook. A reorganization at the Defense Information Systems Agency is turning out to be a shot in the arm for that agency's cloud office. The Director of DISA, Lt. Gen. Robert Skinner, says one goal of the reorg is to simplify its structure. In this highlight from the new episode of the Let's Talk About I-T podcast, Director of the Hosting and Compute Center at DISA, Sharon Woods tells Billy Mitchell in her portfolio, the reorg has done some interesting things.

We’ve already learned the names of many of the people President-elect Biden plans to nominate for top cabinet positions. But any incoming administration has a lot of hiring to do. There are about 1,300 politically-appointed jobs that don’t require Senate confirmation. And our next guest says the Biden administration needs to prioritize those picks, maybe even ahead of the Senate-confirmed ones. Jeff Neal is a former chief human capital officer at DHS, now a member of the National Academy of Public Administration’s board of directors. He talked with us about why those mid-level appointments are so important.

(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 El grupo Boston se crea a mediados de 1969 por el ingeniero del MIT Tom Scholz como guitarrista y principal compositor, además del vocalista Brad Delp, el guitarrista Barry Goudreau y el batería Jim Masdea. Tras unos inicios algo inciertos, en el cual grabaron varias demos, realizadas en el estudio de Tom Scholz ubicado en el sótano doméstico de éste; luego el batería Jim Masdea deja el grupo y es reemplazado por Sib Hashian, mientras que el bajista Fran Sheehan se incorpora a las filas del grupo, que hasta el momento funcionaba como una banda a medio camino entre el circuito de aficionados y el profesionalismo de tiempo completo en los bares y pubs del circuito costero de bandas de rock de la ciudad de Boston. De hecho tanto Bradley Delp como Tom Scholz, tenían trabajos estables de tiempo completo fuera de la escena musical, durante esta primera etapa de la banda los miembros de la primera formación del grupo se habían conocido indistintamente interactuando y compartiendo papeles musicales en otras bandas locales. En los años previos a la edición de su primer LP, las demos realizadas fueron enviadas a varias compañías discográficas, como muestra para una eventual grabación y edición, y frecuentemente se recibía la respuesta (a confesión del propio Tom Scholz) "...esta banda no tiene nada que ofrecer...". Fue así como, en 1976, y gracias a las composiciones ingeniosas de Scholz, el grupo publica ese mismo año su primer álbum titulado simplemente "Boston", tomando como base las demos realizadas en el estudio particular de Tom Scholz, que fueron remasterizadas y remezcladas en los afamados estudios "The Record Plant" en California, saltando de inmediato a los primeros puestos de las listas de éxitos con el clásico "More Than a Feeling" y con "Peace of Mind". El trabajo de Scholz se puede ver, asimismo, en la enigmática "Hitch a Ride", una de las piezas más completas del disco. La voz de Delp es, además, un total acierto y se nota cierta innovación en el sonido del grupo en comparación de otras bandas de la época. Para 1978, el grupo lanza su segundo álbum titulado "Don't Look Back", el cual es de notable menor calidad que su antecesor y no deja muy satisfecho a Scholz, que acusa a la compañía discográfica de haberlo presionado para publicar este material; a pesar de esto, el disco alcanza ventas que le llevan al disco de platino y la canción que da título al disco se convierte en un éxito comercial. Tras ello, comienza un litigio legal entre la compañía y el grupo, que durará años, y que retrasará el siguiente álbum de Boston durante ocho años. En el intertanto Tom Scholz líder de la banda expresó a los miembros del grupo que si deseaban realizar un proyecto musical alternativo ese era el momento pues el próximo proyecto de la banda tomaría un tiempo mayor. El guitarrista Barry Goudreau lanzó su proyecto solista titulado "Goudreau" en conjunto con otros músicos como banda de apoyo; entonces debido a un malentendido pues el sello discográfico de Barry Goudreau publicitó el disco con la consigna "music throught science" (música a través de la ciencia), Tom Scholz expulsa a Barry Goudreau de la banda acusándolo de suplantar y plagiar en su proyecto musical personal la propuesta grupal de la banda cuestión que no era intención de Goudreau. El guitarrista Gary Phil sustituye a Goudreau y Fran Sheehan deja también al grupo. Scholz financia sus grabaciones vendiendo equipo, debido al asunto entre CBS y Boston. En 1982 el baterista Sib Hashian deja al grupo. En 1986 se lanza, por fin, Third Stage y la canción "Amanda" llega inmediatamente a las listas de popularidad; esta canción es de un sonido muy distinto a las anteriores, una balada muy de los años ochenta, acertada por Scholz y la gran voz de Delp. El álbum alcanza disco de platino. Delp deja Boston en 1990 y es sustituido por Fran Cosmo. El siguiente álbum de Boston no aparece hasta 1994; titulado Walk On, retoma ciertos sonidos de hard rock de los inicios del grupo. Los arreglos de la canción que titula al disco (dividida en tres segmentos) son considerados excesivos por algunos, pero la canción es una de las mejores piezas compuestas y arregladas por el ingenioso Scholz. Delp regresa al grupo ese mismo año. El siguiente trabajo del grupo es Corporate America lanzado en 2002, ya con algunas tendencias pop y otras buenas canciones. Es de resaltar la participación de Fran Cosmo y su hijo Anthony, además de que entra Kimberley Dahme en el bajo y en algunos arreglos vocales. Jeff Neal (batería) completa una la extensa alineación de este álbum. Fran Cosmo y su hijo dejaron al grupo a principios de 2006 para formar su propia banda, dejando en ese momento a Brad Delp como única voz del grupo. Se especuló sobre una posible reunión con Barry Goudreau durante este periodo. Uno de los aportes de Tom Scholz es la tecnología "Rockman", que fue utilizada por Def Leppard en su álbum Hysteria. El 9 de marzo de 2007, una de las mejores voces en la historia del rock, Brad Delp, se suicidó inhalando monóxido de carbono. Fue hallado en su casa muerto en el baño con su cabeza encima de una almohada con una nota pegada en el cuello de su camisa con un clip que decía: "soy un alma solitaria". Pruebas de toxicología mostraron que se envenenó respirando monóxido de carbono y también hallaron otra nota en la puerta de su casa diciendo: "Cuando encuentren esta nota, ya estaré muerto, o si no, mi plan B es asfixiarme en mi coche". El sustituto de Brad Delp fue nada menos que el cantante del grupo de rock cristiano Stryper, Michael Sweet, quien participó en el último tour de Boston. Después de que Brad Delp nos dejara el pasado 9 de marzo de 2007, la banda tiene nuevo cantante, Tommy DeCarlo. El nuevo cantante, fue descubierto por casualidad por la mujer de Scholz cantando karaoke con una canción de Boston por Myspace. Boston anunció que la banda lleva grabado el 85% de su nuevo disco y piensan editarlo para el 2013. Según algunas fuentes, en este próximo álbum se podrá escuchar la voz de todos los cantantes incluyendo varias canciones con la voz de Brad Delp.Boston es considerado como un grupo de hard rock, combinando elementos del rock progresivo y heavy metal en su música. El ex-cantante Brad Delp era bien conocido por su gran tesitura vocal y un timbre afinado y "cristalino" que se muestra en éxitos como "More Than a Feeling". El guitarrista y compositor principal Tom Scholz abarca diversos estilos musicales, que van desde la música clásica hasta el pop inglés de 1960, que ha dado como resultado a un sonido único, se dio cuenta de forma más consistente en los dos primeros discos (Boston y Don't Look Back). Este sonido se caracteriza por provocar múltiples armonías combinadas con la guitarra, a menudo alternando sonidos y luego mezclando "capas" de guitarras eléctricas y acústicas. Scholz y Brian May son buenos ejemplos en 'perfectas' armonías de guitarra. Otro factor que contribuye es el uso de equipos de alta tecnología, en cuanto a efectos, amplificación electroacústica, etc. como los Rockman (creado por Tom Scholz), usado por guitarristas como de Journey Neal Schon, la banda ZZ Top, y Ted Nugent; pero por otra parte evitando usar "samplers", sintetizadores, computadores, midis, secuenciadores, y otros tipos de instrumentos en la creación de sonidos pues en palabras de Scholz tales elementos desnaturalizan la verdadera creación musical. El álbum Hysteria de Def Leppard fue creado usando tan sólo la tecnología de Rockman. "Combinando un sonido de guitarra profundo, agresivo, acortado en riffs y casi etéreo. Tiempo después pasó a un enfoque global más pesado, más bajo y oscuro (en los próximos dos álbumes) Third Stage y Walk On. El cantante Brad Delp, que fue fuertemente influenciado por los Beatles, también era conocido por crear el sonido de Boston con su voz característica, que se vincula rápidamente con el grupo como a Freddie Mercury con Queen, Mick Jagger con los Rolling Stones, Steve Perry de Journey, Lou Gramm de Foreigner, Paul Rodgers de Bad Company, Roger Daltrey de The Who, Richard Sinclair con Hatfield & The North, Elliot Lurie con Looking Glass, Dennis DeYoung con Styx, Andy Fairweather-Low con Amen Corner, y Steve Walsh de Kansas.Escucha este episodio completo y accede a todo el contenido exclusivo de Biblioteca Del Metal (Recopilation).

Hear more on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.

He said the guidance is merely old wine in a new bottle.

The General Schedule of job classifications is in its eighth decade. And the jobs of today in the federal government scarcely resemble those of the 1950s. With the disappearance of the typist, so too has gone the job of the classifier. Former Homeland Security chief human capital officer Jeff Neal joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin for commentary on this issue.
The government is still struggling to hire and retain young workers. A recent analysis by the Government Accountability Office shows that while the federal workforce is getting more diverse, it's still getting older. In an interview with Federal News Network's Eric White, former Homeland Security chief human capital officer Jeff Neal had a lot to say about that.
The Office of Personnel Management, so much in the microscope the last couple of years, would be largely dismantled by the Trump administration. Jeff Neal argues OPM should indeed be dealt with but by Congress and not for necessarily the obvious reasons. Neal, a senior vice president at ICF and former chief human capital officer at the Department of Homeland Security, joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to explain his reasoning.
You trudge to work every day, you log on and open Outlook and you get paid every two weeks. So is federal work just another job? Hardly, says Jeff Neal, former Department of Homeland Security chief human capital officer and human resources issues blogger. He joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to discuss.

Government Matters presents an in-depth look at the multi-agency undertaking to modernize healthcare records—from soldier to veteran. Featuring interviews with Rep. Jim Banks, Maj. Gen. Lee Payne, Scott Blackburn, John Windom, Carol Harris and Stacy Cummings.
Congress seems inclined to ensure furloughed and working-without-pay federal employees get their back pay once the shutdown ends. That's always been the case but it's not enough, at least not in the opinion of Jeff Neal, a former federal chief human capital officer. He joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin for more discussion.
Every year the Best Places to Work rankings for federal agencies produce apparently perennial winners and losers. Besides lists that are fun to talk about, what effects do the rankings really have? For some answers, Jeff Neal, former chief human capital officer at the Department of Homeland Security, joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin. That's one of the agencies which could stand some improvement in the Best Places to Work rankings.
Another Veterans Day has passed. American military veterans are as diverse a group as you'll find anywhere, and they don't all need the same level of service from the Department of Veterans Affairs or other parts of the government. That's not surprising, but what is is the level of care needed by some of the youngest veterans. Jeff Neal, former Homeland Security chief human capital officer and now a senior vice president with ICF, joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin for more details.
The sudden departure of Office of Personnel Management Director Jeff Pon took nearly everyone by surprise. What's not a surprise is that the Trump administration would like to break up OPM and divide its duties between the General Services Administration and the White House. So what's next? For some possible scenarios, Jeff Neal of ICF, a former Homeland Security chief human capital officer, joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin.
Federal employees asked to relocate to another city can refuse, but that can be grounds for dismissal. But those who do move are entitled to a few things as well. Jeff Neal, former Homeland Security chief human capital officer, joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to discuss this vexing question.
You work for the government. You do one of a million jobs. The pay and benefits are good, and there's almost never a layoff. But would you recommend a job in the government to a friend, to a child? Jeff Neal, the former chief human capital officer at Homeland Security, has been thinking about this question and discussed it on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.
Human resources departments, personnel offices, whatever you like to call them federal agencies mostly complain about them. Federal News Radio guest columnist Jeff Neal ought to know. The former HR chief for the Homeland Security Department, and now with ICF. joined me now with how HR shops can improve their customer service.
The Trump administration's government reorganization plan includes a proposal that would essentially eliminate the Office of Personnel Management. This idea has raised a few eyebrows. Is there a way to make the civil service system more efficient without handing off OPM's responsibilities to, say, the Office of Management and Budget? For one view, Federal News Radio's Eric White spoke with Jeff Neal, senior vice president of ICF and former chief human capital officer for the Homeland Security Department, on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.

The appropriations bill for 2018 prohibits the administration from cutting or reorganizing federal agencies. But what does that exactly mean? Can the White House, for instance, consolidate bureaus or field offices? That's exactly what they're arguing over with respect to the Federal Labor Relations Authority. Jeff Neal, senior vice president at ICF and former chief human capital officer at the Homeland Security Department, tells Federal Drive with Tom Temin the arguments are as clear as mud.
In some ways, Washington is like the Emerald City. It's the ultimate seat of power and patronage. Remote leadership appears wrapped in pomp, guarded by well-dressed soldiers. If you're a federal employees out in Munchkin City, the pay and perks might be lower, but there's less bureaucracy too. And you'll probably never lay eyes on the wizard. Federal employment blogger Jeff Neal has been thinking about this, and joins the Federal Drive with Tom Temin with some insight into the tension between Washington and bureaus out in the hustings.
The Partnership for Public Service, as part of its superb and comprehensive work on presidential transition, has partnered with The Washington Post to track presidential nominations and appointments for 638 key appointments that require Senate confirmation. With 274 positions having confirmed appointees, 138 formally nominated, 8 awaiting nomination and 218 with no nominee, the administration is lagging significantly behind the Obama, G. W. Bush and Clinton administrations in nominating and appointing people to fill many key posts. The number of nominations is closer to that of the G. H. W. Bush administration. The “key positions” include several chief financial officers, many assistant secretaries, the Department of Defense inspector general, the Director of the U.S. Marshals Service, administrators of three agencies in the Department of Transportation, the Deputy Secretary of the Treasury and many more. Interestingly, there were also critics who said that by the end of his first term, President Obama was leaving too many jobs unfilled (though a much smaller number).
Listen to the president during the State of the Union speech last month and you'd think the Veterans Affairs Department is firing its way to greatness. But in fact not that much has changed for VA employees since passage of the VA Accountability and Whistleblower Protection Act last year. Jeff Neal, former chief human capital officer at Homeland Security and vice president at ICF, has been following the law and its aftermath carefully. He joins Federal Drive with Tom Temin to discuss the Act.
The end of a federal fiscal year is like being trapped in a haunted house. We creep past the same corner over and over again, and the same monster pops out. That monster? Expiration of a continuing resolution and the resulting shutdown scare. Jeff Neal, senior vice president at ICF and former DHS personnel chief, joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to talk about lingering effects of a potential, or even short term, shutdown.
It might make sense if operating the government on continuing resolutions and last-minute omnibus spending bills actually saved money for the taxpayers. But Jeff Neal, senior vice president for ICF, told Eric White on Federal Drive with Tom Temin the opposite is true.
Nothing says "I love you not" quite as much as a pay freeze. That's why news leaking out that the Trump administration is considering a pay freeze for 2019 is so disappointing. The Obama administration imposed a three-year pay freeze and that didn't go over too well either. Jeff Neal, former chief human capital officer of Homeland Security, now with ICF, joined Federal Drive with Tom Temin to discuss the potential effects the pay freeze could have.
This year's Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey results included some positive signs: governmentwide, job satisfaction is up, employee engagement is up, and so is participation in the survey itself. Even agencies like the Homeland Security Department that have struggled with low scores in years past are beginning to show improvement. Jeff Neal is a former DHS chief human capital officer, now senior vice president at ICF. He talked about whats behind this year's numbers with Federal News Radios Jared Serbu on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.
Federal agencies large and small are struggling to hire and keep qualified cyber professionals. Agencies say they need more specialized hiring authorities. Members of Congress want them to use more of the authorities they already have. But the problem may be too big to solve simply by changing federal recruiting policies. Jeff Neal, senior vice president at ICF, talked about the challenge with Federal News Radio's Jared Serbu on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.
Members of the Senior Executive Service know being transferred to a new job or agency goes with that SES status. But that doesn't necessarily mean you'll be happy if it you're shipped off. So how can agency political executives use the SES mobility program without ruffling feathers? For a few ideas, Federal News Radio's Eric White spoke with Jeff Neal, ICF senior vice president and former chief human capital officer of Homeland Security on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.

Color Three are Gary Pihl (pronounced peel), Kimberley Dahme (pronounced dom) and Jeff Neal. They met as members of the rock band BOSTON and have toured together since 2003. Gary's been with BOSTON since 1985 when his former gig in the Sammy Hagar Band ended when Sammy went on to sing in Van Halen. Gary and Tom Scholz (founder and chief songwriter/producer of BOSTON) found Kimberley as a singer/songwriter and recruited her as a bass player for the band. Her poignant song, "With You", with her singing lead vocal, is a featured track on the BOSTON CD, Corporate America. Tom spotted Jeff Neal performing in a local band and was a terrific find. He's a singing drummer/songwriter in the vein of Phil Collins and Don Henley. Color Three came to be a band as a result of the three musicians' desire to perform some charity concerts and to compose, record and perform live together outside of the scope of their other bands. Their combined songwriting talents have created a uniquely original sound that blends all their former experience, from Gospel to Pop to Metal, into a melodic pastiche with three part harmony. The debut Color Three album will be released this summer. Besides the songs they've written themselves, they've collaborated with some other platinum selling songwriters like Kelly Keagy (Night Ranger), Mark Slaughter, and alt country artist, Anthony Smith. The recordings were made just the way the band performs the songs live - three instruments, three voices. Featuring a surprisingly textured sound, some listeners have described Color Three as Fleetwood Mac meets U2. WWW.COLORTHREE.COM
