Mager and Pipe Model

In the book Analyzing Performance Problems, Mager and Pipe introduced a model for analyzing performance problems.

Designed as a flow chart with questions, and directions that vary based on the answers one could take, this easy to use guide is best suited for managers that are analyzing the performance issues of their teams and need help coming to a decision point. It is practical and systematic and validates the importance of examining and attacking the “non-training” solutions that arise first instead of creating costly and in many cases un-needed learning solutions.
