Learning and Development for Managers


Perspectives from Research and Practice
By: EUGENE SADLER-SMITH
(University of Surrey)
Blackwell Publishing, 2006

Kirjan sislt
Enables students and managers of learning and
development (L&D) to understand the theory and
practice of L&D in organizations.
Explores the concept of learning from a variety
of perspectives through the use of examples of
research and practice from all over the world.
Takes a broad view of learning as encompassing
both explicit and implicit and individual and
collective learning processes.
Argues that the practice of L&D should be based
upon a rigorous theoretical and empirical base.

Kirjan sislt
Each chapter uses synopses of research studies
and case studies from businesses to illustrate the
most important theories, concepts and models.
Lists of key concepts, knowledge outcomes,
'perspectives from practice', 'perspectives from
research', discussion points (for individual or
class use), and concept checklists to benefit both
students and teachers.
Is illustrated throughout with diagrams, tables
and 'L&D facts and figures'.

through enhanced knowledge skils
and attitudes (KSA)
Generic KSA are transferable and

to any such
changes
