Once the AoPs Are Established – Detail the Performance Requirements and Gap Analysis

Part 1 covered establishing the AoPs – Areas of Performance – here.

Performance Model Chart

Note that there were several chart/pages for the Performance Model for the one AoP of: Staff Recruiting, Selection and Training. Note that that AoP could have been broken down to 2 or 3 AoPs. That is not the big deal about chunking.

The AoPs for the above example.

Example Chart/Page Progression

One – Capture the Tasks and Outputs/Measures.

My experience – I’ve been doing these since 1979 – suggests that people generally think of Tasks before Outputs.

So often I ask for a Task – any Task – within the AoP and then work upstream and downstream until the Task sounds like an Output: Draft the Analysis Report.

Two – Using the measures determine the Typical… not everything/anything under the su – unless THAT is critical to your downstream efforts/outputs.

Sometimes it is necessary to go beyond typical to potential. Then change the header of the column.

Three – determine the probable cause – unless you need to cover every possibility. Again, change the header of that column. And finally complete the last column of type of cause. See the Job Aid that follows for more on that.
