Performance Improvement Plan Part 2: Intervention Plan
Purpose
The purpose of the Performance Improvement Plan Part 2: Intervention Plan assignment is to allow students the opportunity to apply their knowledge of staff performance management to a real world situation. Using the pinpointed problem identified in Performance Improvement Plan Part 1 and the assessment results from the Performance Assessment assignments, students will research and select at least two interventions to improve staff performance in the identified context.
Steps
1. Research at least one Antecedent intervention and at least one Contingency intervention that would be appropriate for the improvement of the identified staff performance problem. The interventions must be based on the type of problem identified by the assessment. If more than one type of problem was identified, students have the option to select only one for this assignment or, for additional practice and feedback, choose all.
2. Include a report with the context, pinpoint, and negative outcomes from assignment 1 (5 points) and assessment results from assignment 2 (5 points).
3. Describe in detail what can be done to prevent the likelihood of the performance problem occurring. What changes can be made to prevent or reduce the problem (10 points)?
4. How will this intervention reduce the likelihood of the performance problem? Be specific and reference the type(s) of problem as identified in the Assessment (10 points).
5. Describe a new target staff performance behavior that will be reinforced with the contingency intervention. Put your new target behavior in boldface type. Make sure that it is operational (observable and measurable). Make sure that is directly related to both the original pinpointed performance problem and at least one type of problem as identified in the Assessment (10 points).
6. Describe how the new behavior impacts the positive outcomes; meaning, what company, coworkers, stakeholders, and/or client outcomes will be improved when the new staff performance behavior is increased (10 points).
7. Describe the intervention in detail. Explain:
- Whether the reinforcement is part of a Group Contingency, an Independent Contingency, or a Self-Management Contingency (5 points).
- What the reinforcement will be (5 points).
- Who will deliver it (5 points).
- When/how often it will be delivered (5 points).
- If there is a backup reinforcer, describe what it is, when how and by who it will be delivered
- Describe what data will be collected on the new target behavior and who will collect it (5 points).
- Provide a sample data sheet for the new target behavior (5 points).
8. Explain why you selected each intervention. This must draw a clear line between the type of problem identified in your assessment and the intervention selected. Please put this explanation in boldface type for each intervention (5 points)
