-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) intends to submit to
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for review of a
currently approved collection, Leadership Assessment Surveys. OPM is
requesting approval of the OPM Leadership 360TM, Leadership
Potential Assessment, and the Leadership Profiler as a part of this
collection. Approval of these surveys is necessary to collect
information on Federal agency performance and leadership effectiveness.
DATES: Comments are encouraged and will be accepted until January 26,
2021.

title, by the following method:
Federal Rulemaking Portal: http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the
instructions for submitting comments.
All submissions received must include the agency name and docket
number for this document. The general policy for comments and other
submissions from members of the public is to make these submissions
available for public viewing at http://www.regulations.gov as they are
received without change, including any personal identifiers or contact
information.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: A copy of this ICR, with applicable
supporting documentation, may be obtained by contacting Human Resources

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995, (Pub. L. 104-13, 44 U.S.C. chapter 35) as amended by the
Clinger-Cohen Act (Pub. L. 104-106), OPM is soliciting comments for
this collection. The previous collection (OMB No. 3206-0253, published
in the Federal Register on December 27, 2017 at 82 FR 61339) has a
clearance that expires September 30, 2021. Comments are particularly
invited on:
1. Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have practical utility;
2. Whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection is
accurate, and based on valid assumptions and methodology; and
3. Ways in which we can minimize the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to respond, through the use of the
appropriate technological collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
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
748 (2002); 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 of 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
104 items focused on identifying individuals ready to move into
supervisory positions. OPM's Leadership Profiler consists of 245 items
that measure leadership personality characteristics within a ``Big 5''
framework. These assessments are almost always administered
electronically.
