“…This project site was a military medical center and the study may be subject to the concept and challenges related to pencil whipping. It is not an issue unique to this setting, but it appears to be well documented within the system (McKeon, 2012;Rauschelbach, 2013;Wong & Gerras, 2015). Pencil whipping impacts survey data when respondents complete the form without reading and considering the actual items.…”

“…With research studies as a constant and recurring theme that creates the evidence-based foundation of practice, staff members are subject to survey completion on an ongoing basis. Agency staff also report a phenomena described as pencil whipping, wherein staff will complete the form without truly reading and evaluating the items (Kretschmer, 2015;Rauschelbach, 2013). It is possible that this occurred in some instances with the current survey tool and project data collection (Wong & Gerras, 2015).…”

Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 1 hour per response, including the time for reviewing instruction, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to Washington ABSTRACT (maximum 200 words)The U.S. Navy Supply Corps officer community's professional development guidance does not solidly link to the organization's strategic vision, goals, or objectives. This study qualitatively analyzes the degree of alignment between officer development guidance and strategic initiatives. It evaluates two sets of documents: near-, mid-, and long-term strategy and individual career guidance playbooks. As Supply Corps officers progress through military service, career milestones do not reflect the radical shift in corporate culture needed by Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) to better serve U.S. Navy customers. This research examines two constructs that bind employees to organizational strategy: performance management and employee engagement. The study recommends adopting industry-standardized professional certification programs to validate functional knowledge, skills, abilities, and competencies to provide (1) a metric for measuring progress toward strategic initiatives and (2) an incentive for attaining and maintaining functional competency in the U.S. Navy Supply Corps. Professional certification benefits the individual through validated knowledge and association with industry-recognized professional organizations. More importantly, the organization benefits in formalizing its relationship with external organizations (through its officers), gains the credibility needed for contributing when in partnership with Joint Naval Support Network partners, and provides a metric by which NAVSUP can measure its progress toward strategic goals.14.
