Findings – No specific empirical findings are presented in this article, however, the references provided do contain complete information on the creation and use of the performance template approach in the field. Practical implications – The performance template (P-T) approach gives managers and other organization members a means for creating new practices that can assist and inform participants in the areas of knowledge creation, skill building and performance improvement. The P-T processes do not require any special expertise; a manager can implement the processes on her/his own, although the process is somewhat labor intensive.

Originality/value – Taken by individual segment, the P-T approach is not new; however, the segments in combination provide a set of processes that when executed skillfully may influence employee learning and performance as well as help managers develop important skills
