2 ESI s Flexible Impact Model A Comprehensive Solution for Performance Improvement At ESI we believe that a good return on training investment is achieved by assessing the long-term impact a training programme should have on the business. Learning a new skill in a classroom setting is one thing; actually applying that skill to the job is completely another. Without reinforcing what participants learn, training becomes just another theoretical idea without any practical application. Real learning is about adopting and applying what you learn to reality. ESI s Impact Model - Assess, Implement and Adopt - demonstrates this valuable process. Each activity drives value and results on its own; however, it is when they come together along with validation at each stage which delivers immediate, measurable improvements that make a lasting impact.

3 Assess: Defining where you are and where you want to go At ESI International, we understand that learning is not just a single event. It s a continuous process that occurs over time. Assessments provide the tangible data and benchmarks that allow ESI to develop learning solutions that are fully aligned with your needs. These benchmarks also provide the basis for setting defined improvement targets, for validating the effectiveness of the learning programme, and for measuring the impact of that programme on behaviours in the workplace. ESI s Project Management & Business Analysis assessment tools evaluate your employees needs & requirements: Individual Assessment PMAppraise Allows you to assess your employees project management training needs. BAAppraise Allows you to assess your employees Business Analysis training needs. PM360: A Competency Assessment This is a tool that helps clients measure and benchmark soft skills competencies and behaviours in their project managers from a true 360 perspective. An individual s own self rating, against the 6 competency areas and 40 individual behaviours, is reflected against, and compared with, how key internal stakeholder groups perceive those same behaviours in terms of their importance and their application. Organisational Assessment PMKnowledge & Practices Survey This online survey is baselined against Levels 2 and 3 of ESI s Project Management Maturity model ProjectFRAMEWORK. Its designed to measure an organisation s AS-IS state, in terms of the project management practices that currently exist, the extent to which those practices are being deployed and used consistently by the groups being surveyed, and how that deployment relates to their knowledge of best practice in the same areas. BA Knowledge & Practices Survey This online survey is to generate data on a client s current Business Analysis (BA) working practices, and related BA performance, across the full requirements lifecycle. The survey, which is IIBA-aligned, is designed to measure: u The BA practices that currently exist. u The extent to which those practices are being deployed and used consistently by the groups being surveyed. u How that current deployment relates to their knowledge of best practice in the same areas. Analysis of the survey data provides evidence of good, consistent practice, and also highlights areas where further investigation, or specific interventions, may be required to improve practices and elevate performance. Agile Knowledge Assessment This evaluates how well individuals understand and utilise Agile practices and how the work environment impacts the project team. High Performer PM360 Most organisations don t seem to know where their Project Management performance benchmarks are set, particularly as it relates to the application and impact of soft skills. The key to establishing the required benchmarks, sits with the perceived high performers in your current PM organisation. Working with a group of your nominated high performers, ESI uses its Project Manager Competency Model and PM360 assessment tool to help put hard measures around the perceived value, and observed impact, of specific soft skill behaviours of your key stakeholder groups, and their views on what constitutes project success for the current organisation. ProjectFRAMEWORK Assessments During a ProjectFRAMEWORK assessment, your organisation is assessed on 50 key process areas across ten PMBOK Guide knowledge areas and will receive a maturity score for each. The assessment involves a combination of on-line surveys, selected interviews and reviews of key documentation. Upon completion, ESI provides you with a prioritised list of recommendations to improve performance and help your organisation advance to the next maturity level. OPM3 Assessments ESI partners with qualified OPM3/Product Suite assessors to conduct assessments across the domains of Project, Programme and Portfolio Management for your organisation.
