Slide 4

Effective Teamwork Fundamentals

  • Team structure.
  • Leadership.
  • Situation monitoring.
  • Mutual support.
  • Communication.
  • Combine this with a "culture of safety."

Slide 5

Impact Evaluation

  • In Fiscal Year 2008-09, TeamSTEPPs® will:
    • Continue to collect quantitative data for Level 1 and Level 2 evaluation.
    • Develop and implement standardized Level 3 & 4 assessment tools.
    • Include sustainment as part of system-wide evaluation.

Below the text is a pyramid-structured set of levels with each level bigger than the next.

Kirkpatrick's Model:

  • Level 5—Return on Investment.
    Was the training worth the cost?
  • Level 4—Results.
    Did the change in behavior positively affect the organization?
  • Level 3—Behavior/Training Transfer.
    Did the participants change their behavior on-the-job based on what they learned?
  • Level 2—Learning
    What skills, knowledge, or attitudes changed after training?
    By how much?
  • Level 1—Reaction
    Did the participants like the training?
    What do they plan to do with what they learned?
