Management training and development at Aeroquip‐Vickers, Inc.: a process model – part 2

The second part of the article aims to show how the principles established during the evolution of the management development program at Aeroquip‐Vickers can be applied to other organizations. In particular, the design of each manager’s individual development program is a responsibility shared between the organization and the manager themselves. It was also found that most managers remember and learnt most from real, challenging situations they had to deal with and development programs need to recognise this by incorporating challenging assignments and opportunities as well as training and education.
