Developing Centres

This book provides practical guidance on each of the key stages for designing and implementing a programme of development centres. These aim to match the right person to the right job and develop their potential to do the job well. The book aims to remove the mystery attached to development centre design, and illustrates ways in which training or personnel managers can create their own development centre materials, competences and processes which will work effectively within their own organization. The book could eliminate the need for costly consultants. The book features: contributions from a wide range of experts from major companies; comprehensive guidance to setting up development centres from design to implementation; and a projection of future trends.
