Abstract
This paper examines the issues of agency merger and managerial flexibility in the
Department of Homeland Security. The mission of DHS is to prevent terrorist attacks within the
United States, reduce America’s vulnerability to terrorism, and minimize the damage and recover
from attacks that do occur (Bush 2002b, 8). The creation of DHS reflects the confluence of two
strains of thought: the key issues and strategies of homeland security and the values of strategic
management, especially strategic human resources management. The remainder of the paper
identifies the critical questions in each area that impact the future success or failure of DHS,
evaluates the passage and implementation of the new Department, and makes recommendations
for future action.
