ABC Analysis

05/28/05 | by Clarise Z. Doval Santos [mail] | Categories: Project Management

Since human relationships influence the outcome of a project, it is natural for projects to have breaks in communication, petty personal conflicts or misunderstandings. Analyzing human behaviors that affect the outcome of projects is critical to resolving human resources performance concerns.

Antecedent-Behavior-Consequences (ABC) Analysis is a helpful tool in identifying, analyzing and influencing desirable and undesirable tasks, activities, behaviors of individuals and groups. It involves gathering information to clearly pinpoint or describe a behavior; analyzing and understanding why the behavior occurs; and determining what actions will influence the behavior.

Using ABC Analysis helps understand why people act the way the do, and determine actions to take that will encourage desirable performance and eliminate or reduce undesirable performance. By using this simple method, project managers can analyze the performance of people issues that may affect the project outcome.
