An active role for the big bosses in management training

Abstract

In several European countries we can observe an increasing willingness among organisations to support in‐company “experimental” approaches to management training. It is a common feature of all these “experiments” that they attempt to take account of the particular needs of the individual managers undergoing the training. In France, for example, CEDEP has been set up by a small number of European companies to be the centre for the continuing education of their managers. Throughout their careers, managers in these organisations will attend CEDEP for further development of their knowledge and skills. Similarly in England, most of the work of my own institution, Durham University Business School, is involved in on‐going relationships with a limited number of organisations for whom we provide in‐company management training at all levels.
