This special issue of Performance Improvement
(PI) journal, Clarifying HPT, is intended to encourage all ISPI members and friends to take stock of our evolved
technology -- HPT -- and assist the Society in clarifying its various “technology domains.”
This dialogue began with the re-publication of Geary Rummler’s 1983 article “Technology Domains and
NSPI” in the July 2002 issue of PI.
After reading the articles, YOU are invited to participate in our Society-wide exchange of ideas regarding human performance technology. Please write your two-page treatise (no more than 1200 words), and submit it to Guy Wallace at
guy.wallace@eppic.biz. Though we are interested in all your thoughts and ideas, we would appreciate receiving only one submission per author. Please respond to one or more of the following points:
-
What is HPT’s value proposition?
-
What does HPT include and not include?
-
What’s wrong with and right with HPT today?
-
If one were to master HPT, what would one be “skillful” at, versus “knowledgeable” about, or simply “aware” of?
-
How can HPT co-exist with other improvement methods, techniques, and tools such as those that come from: Industrial Engineering (IE), total quality management (Statistical Process Control (SPC) and six sigma), Organization Development (OD), finance, etc.?
-
How do we position ourselves and HPT with those other disciplines for true collaborations?
-
What else can/should ISPI do to better communicate or market HPT and the value of
HPT?
