A Handbook for Training Strategy
When the first edition of Martyn Sloman’s Handbook appeared, it made an immediate impact on the HRD community. Its starting point was the idea that traditional approaches to training in the organization were no longer effective. The Handbook introduced a new model and set out the practical implications. The world of HRD has moved on, and Martyn Sloman has now drastically revised the text to reflect the increased complexity of organizational life and the many recent developments in the field. His aim remains the same: to help readers to develop a framework in which training can be effectively managed and delivered. In Part I of the text the author draws attention to the opportunities create...
The Changing World of the Trainer
The ‘Changing World of the Trainer’ considers how the human resource development professional should undertake his or her role in today’s organization.

This practical work proceeds through a series of tools, checklists, questionnaires and instruments and presents an extensive series of illustrative case studies, drawn from organizations throughout the world. The book argues that the problems that trainers face are fundamentally the same. Their objective is to put a process in place to ensure that employees are able to acquire the knowledge and skill required by the organization. The acquisition of indivi...
Training in the Age of the Learner
Powerful competitive drivers demand a different approach to the development of employees. Emphasis must be shifted from training as a series of top-down interventions to a focus on individual and team learning as an on-going activity. The individual learner will be encouraged to take more responsibility for their learning and E-learning may emerge as the enabling mechanism that allows necessary change to happen. This book sets out a new paradigm for human resource development for the 21st century. It offers both a theoretical framework and practical guidelines derived from innovative research and experience.

The E-learning Revolution
"As the concept of e-learning moves from the future into the present, trainers and human resource professionals must not only adapt their methods to a new medium, but also rethink the very nature of workplace education. Written by a top training professional and leading authority on technology-based development, The E-Learning Revolution is a call to arms that no one in training and development can afford to ignore. Based on a series of hard-hitting propositions that examine how organizational learning has evolved, the book provides provocative insights on: * How learner-centered educational technologies will demand a reexamination of the way professionals learn * What trainers must do to acknowledge the changes in which organizations compete in the new connected economy * Why barriers between knowledge management, performance management, and training must fall if a company wants to achieve its agenda Filled with case studies of companies like Ernst & Young, IBM, and Hewlett Packard, The E-Learning Revolution provides a catalyst for change in a rapidly evolving profession."
Delivering E-Learning
Delivering E-Learning describes a new and better way of understanding e-learning. The author looks at overcoming objections to e-learning and acknowledging poor past practice before presenting a new strategic approach. It places the emphasis firmly on learning, not the technology, de-mystifying the jargon and de-bunking industry myths. The current way most people look at e-learning is flawed, and this means they are missing its full potential. This book provides a clear framework to better understand e-learning. Proposing a strategic approach to implementing e-learning, the author demonstrates how to align e-learning strategy with learning and business strategies. It offers a complete resource for applying e-learning to any organization.
The Mentoring Manual
This companion title to 32 Activities on Coaching and Mentoring, reflects the prerequisites for a successful mentoring scheme and an effective mentor. The book offers a holistic approach, with help here on understanding mentoring, planning and designing a scheme. A variety of case studies, plus a selection of forms, questions, exercises and photocopiable materials, make this a thoroughly satisfying read.
Team-based Learning
Team-Based Learning shows how the ability to learn lies at the heart of effective working in teams. It identifies the ingredients that make good teams better. These include established models of learning, of individual personality and of organizational culture, plus some of the author's own. This convincing and authoritative book will help trainers and line-managers understand the process of team-based learning; view it in the context of team roles, personality types and organizational culture; and move it from their wish-list to their to-do list.
