Organizational Change. The King County Sheriff’s Office adapted a three-phased approach to effect organizational change that involved changes in recruitment strategies, in the selection system, and in how it assessed deputy performance. Further, it linked information on job functions, required competencies, and the test scales used to assess them, to performance appraisal rating scales. Together, all of this information increased the content and construct validity of the sheriff’s office’s performance management system supported by HSS. As such, the work presents a solid model for consideration when institutionalizing organizational change. The performance management system facilitated by HSS represents a change in emphasis when compared to traditional selection research. Further, it shows how a well-conceived hiring project can introduce vital change into an organization. Central to this effort was the guiding principle that drove HSS in the King County Sheriff’s Office and which defined it as more than a hiring project. HSS was framed as the foundation of organizational systemic change that would affect critical human resource systems. The sheriff’s office was clear that instead of revising strategies aimed only at recruit deputies, HSS would affect the career life of all deputies. Clearly, the link to performance appraisal helps to accomplish that objective. Unique Accomplishments • Developed core competencies with links to existing assessment tools • Developed a model eligibility list • Developed a service-oriented performance appraisal Developed core competencies with links to existing assessment tools: The careful development of core competencies that reflect service-oriented law enforcement is a considerable achievement. The work of the King County Sheriff’s Office provides a clear definition of the job functions of a deputy in a community policing department and links these functions to the core competencies required to perform these functions. Moreover, using a construct validity strategy to define the competency model clearly strengthens the credibility of this body of work. The linking of competencies to existing occupational and clinical assessment tools through the auditing process takes advantage of the scientific evidence that has supported commercially available tools in accordance with laws and published guidelines for the use of psychological screening in employee selection. These guidelines include The Uniform Guidelines on Employees Selection Procedures, the ...
