Julie Anna Barker
Chief Human Resources Officer, ManTech
Julie Anna Barker said 2024 has been a year focused on leadership development because great leaders attract and retain top talent. ManTech’s new Leading for Outcomes program is a unique leadership initiative with a custom-designed curriculum tailored specifically for the company.
“We take a unique-to-ManTech approach to everything we do,” Barker said.
All ManTech leaders are participating in a three-day immersive learning experience at the University of Virginia Darden campus, designed to provide a one-of-a-kind leadership development experience. As one of Glassdoor’s “Top 50 2024 Best-Led U.S. Companies,” ManTech continues to invest heavily in leadership growth, believing that when you grow your leaders, you grow your people and your business.
“My vision as CHRO leader is to leverage our people-informed data on Human Capital decisions,” Barker said. “The work we do related to our people drives greater functional credibility, better partnership with our business leaders and successful outcomes when we have quantifiable and measurable goals to enable growth of the business and our people.”
