Formal Training Courses in Context

Abstract

Some organisations use external management and supervisory training courses as a major means of developing and training their staff. Whose needs do these courses address however? Is it those of the sponsoring organisation's or those of the individuals attending? What implication does this have for the role of the external trainer and for the administration of organisational training policy?
