Book excerpt: Here is an effective, step-by-step plan for improving performance on a large-scale and getting the results and payoffs you desire. If you have a group, a group of groups or an entire organization that needs an intervention, you'll find this book invaluable. Implementation and Management of Performance Improvement Plans begins in the middle – in the implementation phase of performance improvement plans rather than the design or planning phases. This is because, according to the author, implementation is where something useful happens ... or doesn't. Performance improvement aimed at individuals and groups is different. Here you'll learn about common basic misconceptions and errors other leaders make when shifting focus from individual to group and how not to go down the same road. Covered in this cutting-edge resource are six key topic areas: How to approach improvement in a systematic way and "do it right"; How to bring the entire organization into an alignment that adds value over time and keep it there; How project management stitches everything together – from planning through implementation to value added; How to ensure every group being targeted by the plan is fully aware of what is intended and how it applies to them; How to achieve the "holy grail" of performance improvement – measurable improvements and the measurable increase of commitment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides managers, leaders and practitioners with a dynamic framework that links several variables associated with performance management which can be applied across organizations and industries worldwide. Based on empirical evidence and experiences, this book provides a critical understanding of the interrelationship of organizational culture with performance management process (PMP) planning and implementation. The elements of the framework are approached from a macro-level-view and are balanced with conciseness and realism based on applied success studies, making this book a valuable educational, training and development resource tool for leaders and managers at all levels. The topic of performance in organizations is like the weather—everyone likes to talk about it, but few understand what is truly happening—or understand why? Individuals and organizations are no different when it comes to performance, regardless of performance level of focus: individual, team, unit, or organization-wide. Teams and organizations often miss opportunities to not only improve performance, but also leverage and sustain high performance. Organizational performance, organizational culture and organizational success are interrelated and should reinforce one another. This can be achieved through an effective performance management process (PMP) that lives, functions and thrives at multiple levels within institutions. This book will help organizations and institutions achieve performance management success by identifying comment elements, along with some patterned variation, that are applicable to a successful PMP. Featuring hands-on resource reference tools for immediate use and application, this book is useful for leaders, managers, scholars, students and policy makers in management, leadership, and organizational culture.

Several books work to define what is performance improvement and performance technology. This one also provides insights into the Why? And How?” —CEDRIC T.

It provides a path forward for successful transformation and performance improvement at personal, group and collective levels.

It addresses the science and craft as well as the intricacies of how to improve workplace performance. Van Tiem, Moseley, and Dessinger have incorporated into this work the best available research on the Certified Performance Technology (CPT) standards and process.” —JAMES A.

Book excerpt: Project Management for Performance Improvement Teams (or, PM4PITs, for short) provides practical guidance based on innovative concepts for project teams -- especially Performance Improvement Teams (PITs)—and their Project Managers on how to successfully complete individual projects and programs using an ingenious and scalable framework based on an innovative foundation fusing together elements of Project Management, Innovation Management, and Continual Improvement. This book lays out how Project and Program Managers and their teams can "do those right projects the right way," one project at a time. It details what continual improvement, change, and innovation are, why they are so important, and how they apply to performance improvement—both incremental and transformative. The authors examine the four types of work and workforce management in organizations, Strategic, Operations, Projects, and Crises, using four common comparative variables: Proactive/Preventive versus Reactive/Corrective, Temporary/Unique versus Ongoing/Repetitive, Innovative versus Maintaining the Status Quo, and Schedule Focus: Fiscal Year versus Short Term versus Long Term. These comparisons set the stage for the uniqueness of the third type: Projects (and Programs) that are fundamentally change-driven.

Book excerpt: Research on Just in Time (JIT), Total Quality Management (TQM), Total Productive Maintenance (TPM),Supply Chain Management (SCM), and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) generally investigate the implementation and impact of these programs in isolation. However, none of these paradigms is self sufficient and may not be powerful enough to deliver the improvements and innovations that are required nowadays to insure the survival and growth of a firm. They are not mutually exclusive and inconsistent.On the contrary, they need complementary support and may reinforce mutually to make use of their complementarily, inducement of side effects in favor of other paradigm's, mutual simulation and exploitation of shared values. More researchers have begun to discuss the importance of synergistic approaches by understanding the joint implementation and effect on manufacturing programs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing global competition, combined with shrinking budgets, are forcing managers to find new ways of operating. To compete successfully, companies must now use technology and resources (particularly human resources) to their full potential. Much of the research in the area of performance management has suggested that, while it has great potential to contribute dramatically to the bottom line, it rarely works. The third edition of Managing Performance Improvement looks at why performance systems fail, and explores the tools and techniques to overcome this failure. This best selling text provides practical, specific advice to managers and students enabling them to plan for, and then manage, performance improvement.
