Purpose

This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.

Design/methodology/approach

This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.

Findings

Any organization paying out US$1,200 per employee wants to see some benefit for its spending. Especially if spending that money also involves taking up 30-plus hours of employee time. According to the Association for Talent Development, that is the average amount per employee that US businesses were spending on training in 2013 – and the cost typically goes up each year. What is less clear is how much newly learnt knowledge and skills gets applied to deliver improved organizational performance and increased competitiveness.

Practical implications

The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations.

Originality/value

The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
