| How does your organization manage employee training? Read the following
vignettes and, on a separate sheet of paper, record how your organization would
solve the problem presented in each. If you can offer an effective solution to all
the vignettes, then your company may already be effectively managing training;
otherwise, it may have an urgent need to take a fresh look at reinventing training
practices to emphasize human performance enhancement (HPE).
Beyond Training and Development, Second Edition, is written for those wishing to
revolutionize, reengineer, reinvent, or revitalize the training function in their
organizations. This book is thus an action manual for change. It should be read
by professionals in training and development, organization development, human
resources management, human performance enhancement, human performance
improvement, and human performance technology. It should also be read by
chief executive officers, chief operating officers, general managers, university
faculty members who teach in academic training and development programs,
operating managers, managers of total quality, team leaders working on process
reengineering or process improvement efforts, and others participating in training
or learning activities. In short, this book offers something valuable to just
about everybody. |
