Design for Learning in Management Training and Development: A View Available to Purchase

This monograph is written with the management trainer, development adviser or OD consultant in mind. People engaged in other types of training may find ideas and approaches which are useful in a different context. A precise definition of who “management” are may be difficult, but the one I wish to work from would include “managers, supervisors and any person engaged in management work”. Such a definition would include supervisors in an office but exclude their subordinates. This definition would also include professional staff in for example marketing, or operations research, who are involved in the processes of management within an organisation, even though they had no responsibilities for subordinates. This monograph is written in four sections, each dealing with a particular aspect of design.
