Gap Analysis Best Practices

Gap Analysis is a method of determining how an organization’s current state differs from its desired future state and the steps it needs to take to achieve desired performance results.

More about Gap Analysis

Description of Gap Analysis

Gap Analysis is a common technique for assessing performance gaps across a variety of areas, such as sales growth, productivity, innovation, or leadership competencies, to name just a few. The assessment might require different sources of information, such as qualitative and quantitative data, to arrive at an accurate understanding of what the gaps are. Determining what information is necessary to conduct the assessment and how to acquire it is part of the analysis process, followed by the actual comparison of current versus desired results. Once the gaps have been identified, an implementation plan for closing them must be developed, which requires buy-in and alignment from everyone involved.
