Where's the Workforce?

The Bush administration's just released a new booklet, "Highlights of Accomplishments and Results," as a legacy-shaping device. I expected, as I flipped through it, to find some mention of performance management, or the workforce. But this is as close as it got:

Increased the accountability, transparency, and effectiveness of the Federal • Government, which improved the Government’s performance and helped save billions of dollars.

To be fair, I can understand why the administration wouldn't include a number of contested personnel efforts, like NSPS. But the creation of the Chief Human Capital Officer position doesn't rank as significant? Not a single line about human capital. I guess that is not the stuff of which presidential legacies are made, but it is important on a practical level.
