Thu, Oct 27, 9:10 to 10:05am PDT (9:10 to 10:05am PDT), Conf Center, Melrose 4

Short Description

The field of research and practice concerned with improvement of organizational performance has many names. Examples include: Performance Improvement, Performance Technology, Improvement Science, Performance Engineering, and Human Performance Technology. These variations are found in academic programs, the literature, and the workforce. This panel presentation will engage academics and practitioners in a discussion examining how these terms have evolved and how the lack of a consistent identity has impacted the field.
