Most people would agree that training is a vital part of professional development. But how much of all the time, effort and cost invested—by both learner and organization—comes back in improved performance and profitability?

The Training Manager’s Desktop Guide is designed for the manager who recognizes the need both for a coherent training strategy and for training itself that is professionally planned and organized. Whether you are a full-time training manager, or line manager with responsibility for implementing training, this book will act as a constant source of guidance and helpful advice.
