STAFF DEVELOPMENT BY NEGOTIATED LEARNING CONTRACT

Abstract

Training derived from an instrumental approach such as appraisal often leads to a passive response to training. It is more effective to encourage autonomy, yet to achieve it through negotiation between learner and manager, with the participation of a trainer. A specific programme using this approach is reviewed.
