AB  - Development Centres (DCs) are an increasingly popular method of
assessing key personnel to determine their development needs. They are
also a highly visible and powerful organisational intervention which
reveals an organisation′s core values and culture. This two‐part article
focuses on DCs from two perspectives: first as a HR tool; and second as
an organisation development intervention. Part 1 (here) examines what
DCs are, what they comprise, the benefits, and key steps in establishing
a centre. Part 2 (in the next issue) examines the linkages between three
alternative DC models and both organisation culture and the business
development cycle.
