This comprehensive panel report—commissioned by Congress and DHS—examines the leadership and human capital challenges at the Department of Homeland Security during the 2009 presidential transition. It assesses the department’s executive staffing structure, readiness, and training capacity to sustain mission-critical functions amid administrative turnover. Through analysis of interviews with DHS officials (81 participants), the report outlines a phased timeline of recommendations spanning pre-convention planning to post-inauguration exercises. This includes prioritizing key positions, security clearance protocols, transition training, and conducting a capstone evaluation within six months of the new administration.
