Innovative Performance Support significantly moves the learning revolution to the next level. It is the workplace, and the work itself, where performance support will make its mark, and Gottfredson and Mosher are the trailblazers.”
—Marc J. Rosenberg, Marc Rosenberg and Associates

Research shows that 80 percent of learning in the workplace occurs on the job, rather than in formal training sessions.

Innovative Performance Support offers you a concise and comprehensive overview of performance support (PS) practices—ongoing, job-specific resources that ensure employees perform effectively on the job. From free, open-source applications like blogs and wikis to sophisticated new system software, this guide will help you implement the right PS strategy for your team.

Innovative Performance Support:

  • Saves the investment in formal training and increases productivity
  • Reduces the learning time required to achieve successful performance
  • Supplements or replaces existing training programs
  • Cuts down on the use of help desks and other traditional in-house support functions

Conrad A. Gottfredson and Bob Mosher break down the hows and whys of applying PS solutions to replace the patchwork of existing training programs that you might be using now. They show how leading firms deploy PS solutions to reduce costs, retain talent, and increase productivity and efficiency.
