Types of Performance
Consulting
Performance consulting can be divided into three sub-specialties:
Organizational development specialists help organizations
improve the effectiveness of their staff by changing the
psychodynamics of the organization.
professional development specialists help organizations
improve the effectiveness of their staff by providing technical and
professional training.
personal coaches help individuals be more effective in the
personal or workplace lives. The profession draws its inspiration
from sports coaching, psychotherapy, philosophical traditions, and
religious traditions

Why Performance
Consulting?
Organizations face a daunting array of challenges. Globalization,
increased competition, rapid technological change, diverse
workforces, escalating demands for productivity -- for "high
performance workplaces" . . .
These "constant whitewater" conditions are demanding a broader
and deeper range of skills from managers and leaders as well as
from workers.
As a result, the emphasis is shifting from developing individual
knowledge and skills to implementing performance improvement
strategies.
This shift has redefined the role of the Human Resources
Development staff. No longer is it enough to offer a menu of
courses and measure success by attendance rates. Today,
trainers must become performance consultants who use their
expertise in a variety of ways to add value to the organization's
results.
This shift requires that HRD staff learn new skills and use new
tools to improve the performance of individuals, teams,
Departments, business units, and the organization as a whole.
