From Carol Haig, Roger Addison and Guy Wallace

The updated ISPI Website no longer includes some of our past efforts to promote Human Performance Technology/ Performance Improvement – and so we’ve created a home for them here – at www.hpttreasures.wordpress.com.

The site has just recently gone up – and we’ll be adding to it as time goes on.

TrendSpotters

This page provides PDFs of the monthly TrendSpotters columns written by Carol Haig and Roger Addison, published by ISPI from 2002 to 2012.

TrendSpotters was a monthly column that appeared in PerformanceXpress, the online newsletter of the International Society for Performance Improvement.

Conceived in 2002 by Carol Haig, CPT and Roger Addison, CPT, EdD, this column’s purpose was to make available performance improvement models and tools that readers could use in their work. Each column featured a guest practitioner in Performance Improvement or a related arena. The authors interviewed each guest and then wrote the column, showcasing the guest, the model or tool they shared, a success story featuring the model or tool, and information for using it. All the models and tools are stored on this website where readers may access and download them.

HPT Practitioner & Legacy Video Series

This page provides a list of links to two series of YouTube videos created by Guy W. Wallace, beginning in 2008 – and includes over 60 videos of HPT Practitioners.

HPT Practitioner Video Series – short 2-10 minutes, following a script. Intended to show the diversity of HPT Practices and HPT Practitioners.

HPT Legacy Video Series – longer 15-40 minutes, also scripted, with added stories of other NSPI/ ISPI’ers from the earlier days of the Society. Intended to show the diversity of HPT Practices and HPT Practitioners, and to capture stories of the people from NSPI/ISPI’s past.

All videos were shot, edited and produced by Guy W. Wallace.

From LinkedIn:

I have been a Training/ Learning/ Knowledge Management consultant since 1982 after entering the field in 1979. I first joined a Training & Development organization in 1979 at Wickes Lumber before moving to Motorola Training & Education Center in 1981.

Since 1982 I have served 85+ clients, primarily in the F500. I specialized in the design of modular performance-based Learning Paths/Development Maps – and modular Instruction. In 1984 I co-authored a 1984 Training Magazine article on Curriculum Architecture Design via a Group Process – and another one on Creating Models and Matrices using a Group Process.

I typically facilitate Project Steering Teams in detailed Planning efforts, and then their selected Master Performers to quickly conduct Analysis and Design for handoff to Development teams for quick, parallel development/acquisition.

My work has won internal awards at General Motors, HP, and Siemens Building Technologies. I’ve also received external awards for work done with AT&T, HP and Imperial Oil.

In 2010 I received the International Society for Performance Improvement’s highest award: the Honorary Member for Life – for my contributions to both the technology of Performance Improvement and to the Society. I’ve been a member of ISPI since 1979 and was a Certified Performance Technologist – from 2002 until 2015. I served as a Director (1998-2000) and as President (2002-2004).

In 2010 I was recruited as an inaugural member of ASQ’s Influential Voices initiative to Raise the Voice of Quality. I served until late 2015.

I’ve authored over 90 articles, published 14 books and 2500+ Blog posts. I’ve presented to professional groups over 110 times.
