Reviews

'it is highly recommended for everyone involved in training and development ... With this book as your reference, you can ensure your professional success in the new millennium.' IT Training, November 1999 'of interest to those teaching on human resources and business studies courses and would also be a sound resource for managers developing or adapting a training system in any learning organisation.' National Association for Staff Development (NASD), January 2002

A fully revised edition of an influential book, reflecting the increased complexity of organizational life and developments since it was first written. The author asks what training managers should be doing to ensure that training in their organization is as good as it can be, and stresses the need to keep training aligned with business objectives and encourage line managers to work alongside HR professionals. There is also consideration of the opportunities created for training by the emphasis on competition through people, and of the trainer as strategic facilitator. Supporting the text are questionnaires, survey instruments and specimen documents. (Kirkus UK)
