Glenn Workforce Transformation

---

NASA is in the process of a major transformation designed to realign the Agency and implement the President's Vision for Space Exploration. To achieve the vision, NASA faces many challenges; our primary challenge is to re-shape the NASA workforce to successfully meet its new mission requirements. This website is intended to aid employees as we navigate through this transformation together.
