Abstract
Drawing on author experience – not just as the chairman of the Federal Labor Relations Authority, but also as a long-time mediator and arbitrator – he discuss the dynamics of the collective bargaining process and the major deficiencies of negotiation as it is practices in the federal sector. The author refers to the 1974 survey done by the then-Civil Service Commission and Office of Management and Budget at the instigation of the old Federal Labor Relations Council under Executive Order 11491. In this chapter, author have tried to give the benefit of my thinking on ways of making the contract negotiation process work more efficiently and produce quicker results. It is not my intent to give a short course on bargaining tactics, but to convey some of the ways a sense of urgency can be established and maintained in contract negotiations. Congress itself injected a spirit of urgency into the process when it enacted the statute.
