Organizational development. This category centers on improving the performance of groups or teams. It involves organizational design, team building, culture change, group feedback, incentives and rewards.
Human resource management. The concern is with coaching and managing individual and group performance, as well as recruiting and staffing. Interventions include supervision, leadership, succession planning, and personnel selection.
Environmental engineering. Environmental engineering is concerned with providing tools and facilities for improving performance. Examples include ergonomics, job aids, electronic resources, systems design, job and organizational design and facilities design.
