This document provides an overview of a webinar on improving employee performance using a gap analysis process model. The webinar instructor is Dr. Keith Fulthorp from California State University, Long Beach. The webinar reviews Clark and Estes' gap analysis framework to help participants identify performance issues, determine the causes of performance gaps, and apply solutions. The gap analysis process model involves identifying intended and actual performance outcomes, analyzing the gaps, and determining whether the gaps are due to knowledge/skills, motivation, or organizational factors. The webinar then covers solutions for addressing different types of gaps. Participants are provided a "GAP Your Programs" form to apply the gap analysis process to a specific employee, program area,
A presentation that we did on using tools such as gap analysis, decision matrix and affinity diagram to facilitate group learning. This presentation was used for peer teaching and sharing during DACE facilitation elective.
Are you a leader of transformation?
The world is changing fast, long term planning blinds us for opportunities. Uncertainty is the new status quo. To embrace uncertainty, rather than to avoid it, requires new ways of how we work, collaborate and live our lives.

Electronic Performance Support Workshopguest76aa795
This workshop was conducted at the 10th Annual Corporate University Week in November 2008. In the three-hour workshop, participants learned how to design and develop “point-of-need” self-instruction for an EPSS via blended, experiential, and hands-on learning methodologies. During the workshop, we discussed when an EPSS solution is the right deployment choice over or in addition to other forms of learning to increase speed to competency and reduce errors/misinformation. Participants also learned how to create EPSS solutions to improve learner retention and job performance, and reduce training and support costs.
In this webinar, you will learn how to determine if training is the right solution using the Behavior Engineering Model. By considering each of the key factors that influence performance, you can identify the possible causes of your performance gap and determine whether training can help!

If You Build It, Will They Come? - How to Increase Learning AdoptionB.J. Schone
Designing and building learning materials is a tough enough job, but what happens when you spend weeks or months on a project and nobody even bothers to use it? This presentation will explore more than a dozen ideas for increasing user adoption of learning materials through a series of strategies and tactics you can begin using immediately.
Increasing user adoption requires an in-depth understanding of your users, including their jobs, behaviors, wants, and needs. Once you understand these elements, you can design your implementation approach and introduce on-going activities to increase adoption.
In this presentation, we will explore the psychology of the user, the intent of the organization, and the actions you can take as a learning professional to drive adoption and improve the performance of your users.
For the past 20 years, we have arguably been successful in introducing new ways of working. The language we are using has been slower to evolve. I argue that we should start learning and using the language of outcomes. This would provide the clarity we need to become better at creating value for our customers while continuously learning and improving our delivery capability.

8. KNOWLEDGE & SKILL GAP CAUSES
Knowledge & Skill causes can be identified
wherever performance issues are related to:
Employees/volunteers not knowing HOW TO
achieve a goal, or any aspect of a goal
Identified through ASKING your employees, team,
etc.
Three Indicators of Knowledge & Skill
Causes
Communication Issues
Procedure Issues
Experience Issues
8
9. KNOWLEDGE & SKILL GAPS
Stuck on an Escalator video clip
http://youtu.be/oXCuGvsThEw
After watching the video discuss & share in your chat
box…
• What knowledge and skill gaps were
displayed by the people in the video?
• What knowledge and skill gaps have you
seen with YOUR staff?
9
10. KNOWLEDGE & SKILL SOLUTIONS
(CLARK & ESTES, 2008, P.63)
Four types of Knowledge & Skill solutions and when to use each type:
1. Not using relevant past experience
that will achieve goals?
Information
2. Not enough relevant past experience
but related expertise?
Job Aids
3. No experience or related expertise
but routine procedure?
Training
4. Not prepared to anticipate or solve a
novel future challenge?
Education
10
11. JOB-AIDS
Job-aids are those checklists, reminders, and
notes you leave for employees to use in the
course of their work
Take a few minutes to review some of the
example job-aids (included as handouts
for this webinar.)
Use the Chat box to answer the following questions:
What kind of job-aids does your agency use?
Do your job-aids tell employees both WHAT to
do and HOW to do the job tasks? 11
12. TRAINING CHALLENGES
Poorly designed or delivered training can make
people perform WORSE after a training than
before training
We often use “experts” to train our staff-
meaning you have your “best” part time
employee assist in the training of new
employees
Problem: “experts” have automatic knowledge they
forget to share with new employees
80-90% of what we know is automatic/unconscious
Experts focus on the 10-20% that is conscious when
training new staff 12
13. TRAINING SOLUTIONS
When training, structure
and sequence job
knowledge as the job is
performed
The first step in
accomplishing a job goal
should be the first thing
trainees learn, the second
step, should be the second
thing learned…etc, etc
13
14. TRAINING TIPS?
Chat Box Question:
List the most effective training
technique or tools you have used
in your trainings?
14
17. Making a choice and initiating action to
pursue a goal
Actively working toward a goal
As opposed to procrastinating, avoiding,
arguing or delaying
Not an intention to do something;
active choice is an active pursuit of a
goal
ACTIVE CHOICE
17
18. Level of thinking involved in attaining a goal,
or accomplishing a task
Routine assignments = low mental effort
(automaticity)
New/Novel challenges = high mental effort
Determined by level of confidence
Overconfidence = invest little mental effort
Under-confidence = persistence and choice
problems
MENTAL EFFORT
18
19. Starting action, and continuing/sustaining
action until goal is attained
Many employees are driven by multiple goals
and deadlines
May start/stop multiple goals, and never
“finish”
PERSISTENCE
19
20. In your feedback box…
When it comes to motivating your
employees, which of these Motivation Gap
Causes seem to cause you the most
challenge?
A. Active Choice
B. Mental Effort
C. Persistence
D. All of the above
20
22. After watching the video discuss and
share in your chat box…
In what ways can you change behavior by
making the desired behavior “fun?”
INCREASING MOTIVATION –
THE FUN THEORY
VW The Fun theory video clip: Piano-Stairs
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lXh2n0aPyw
22
23. Suggest reasons and values for
performance goals
Interest value
People will easily and quickly choose to do what
interests them the most
Suggest connections between performance
goals and volunteer’s interests whenever
possible
Skill value
Most people do what they believe will challenge
them
Moderate level of challenge found to be most
motivating
Utility Value
Focus on the benefits of finishing the task, not on
lack of interest in the task
INCREASING MOTIVATION

26. ORGANIZATIONAL GAPS & MANAGEMENT
The role and function of
Municipal Managers
(Parks, Recreation,
Public Works, Public
Safety, etc.) requires an
understanding of the
complex relationships
and structures that make
up organizations.
Work Processes
Culture
Change
26
27. CHANGING WORK PROCESSES
Redesigning work processes can lead to increases
in performance
Must also accompany appropriate adjustments in
knowledge, skills, and motivation of employees
27
28. ORGANIZATIONAL PROCESSES
Be aware that change in one division,
department, process may be causing
performance problems in another division,
department, or process
When developing solutions to organizational
performance gaps related to processes, be
sure to examine the impact the solution has
based on systems approach
28
30. MATERIAL RESOURCES
Managers often overlook the design
and availability of material resources as
a potential cause of performance gaps
To what extent is the availability and
design of material resources available
to employees causing poor
performance?
Tools- (using a “shovel” instead of a
“rake?”)
Equipment- (after school rec program with
none?)
Supplies- (arts & crafts requirement with
no supplies?)
30
31. CULTURE AND PERFORMANCE
“Culture is a powerful
force in performance
and a difficult
characteristic to identify
and influence” (p.108).
Organizational Culture
Individuals
Groups
Environment
31
32. WHAT’S YOUR ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE?
AFTER WATCHING THIS VIDEO...
(HTTP://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=MGPWBKPJDTI)
In your chat box, how
would you describe the
culture of the
organization in the
video?
32
33. DOES ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE “WORK?”
A quick example from
Amazon.com
Clark & Estes suggest
that
“the best evidence would
support the generalization
that nearly all available
organizational
development and change
processes fail 2 out of
every 3 times” (p.115) 45,044
Results!!!
33
34. FACTORS THAT SUPPORT SUCCESSFUL
CHANGE EFFORTS
1. Have a clear vision, goals, and ways to measure
progress
2. Align structures and processes of the organization
with goals
3. Communicate constantly and candidly to those
involved about plans and progress
34
35. FACTORS SUPPORTING CHANGE
4. Top management must be continually involved in
the improvement process
5. Provide adequate knowledge, skills, and
motivational support for everyone
