Purpose

The Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) delivers transportation that keeps Kansans moving forward.

Philosophy

We help KDOT stand out when it comes to our people from leadership, performance, and talent management to benefits and career opportunity. In all that we do, we seek to create competitive advantage by dedicating resources to attracting, developing, and retaining talented individuals who are focused, collaborative, innovative and driven.

We ensure that KDOT has the people capabilities for delivering present and future Agency and function goals. We help develop and coach leaders and act as a change agent for ensuring results are delivered.

We believe that by providing an environment that fosters teamwork, inclusiveness, creativity, and problem solving, it enables individuals to contribute to their potential and contribute to KDOT’s overall growth and goals.

By providing a safe, clean, comfortable, and productive work environment, individuals will be more engaged and focused on the job at hand. We will continually evaluate and improve the way we do things rather than defend the way we have always done things.

We actively promote partnerships within our Division, the Agency, and with other governmental agencies and the public.
