WHAT IT REALLY MEANS

TO BE

ACCOMPLISHMENT-BASED

ISPI pioneers focused

performance improvement on the valuable products of behavior, called

accomplishments, rather than on behavior itself. This session examines the impact of this paradigm shift on all phases of performance improvement. It illustrates the power of this approach with examples, including an accomplishment-based educational model presented by Joe Harless, in his recently re-published book, The Eden Conspiracy. Nearly 20 years of implementation show the far-reaching technical and cultural implications of

accomplishment-based educational design.

increasingly recognizing them as dynamic, living ecosystems. With this understanding, we see that we can be more e!ective not as conductors but as cultivators of change, creating the fertile conditions for dramatically improved performance to emerge naturally and to be sustained over time. Through a small amount of science and plenty of client stories, Michelle Holliday will share what she’s learned over the past 15 years working with a view of organizations as living systems. You’ll leave with a good dose of inspiration, as well as a clear

understanding of how these insights can help you in your own performance improvement work.

THE ROLE OF

TECHNOLOGY

The human world evolves and progresses by applying

knowledge derived from observations, events, and phenomena of nature. Our

evolution (as a person, company, corporation, state, or world) depends on our perceptions and understanding the technologies available.

way we want. Wildlife proves to adapt to the change caused by internal and external interventions or events, while our systems – on the contrary – decline and degrade.

The key for our progress lies in areas of human activity such as computer science, mathematics, philosophy, education,

linguistics, industries is technology and proper use of technology.
