How to Build a Complete, Competency-Based
Management Training Curriculum
10th edition

This 96-page resource guide is imperative for anyone who has been given the task of developing a curriculum or who wishes to validate their existing efforts. The guide walks you through a proven strategy for developing a management training curriculum that is "linked" to the strategic direction and culture of your organization. In it you will learn how to:

Determine the ideal skills needed by managers and leaders operating in a turbulent environment.

Define "core competencies" for individual contributors, managers, and executives within the organization.

Piece together management/leadership training programs into an integrated, just-in-time, curriculum.

Conduct needs assessments using 360º feedback instruments.

Discover alternatives to classroom training that are often more effective in lasting behavior change.

"Prove" training and education efforts really work and learn how to measure improvements.

The guide is based on ten years of work by LeadingWave Consulting with many top organizations. The resource guide contains curricula samples from several leading companies that will help you learn how to build a competency-based curriculum within your own organization.

  About the In-House Seminar

This seminar has been delivered to OD, training, and HR professionals throughout the U.S. for several years. Each time it is offered we provide the latest information about competency-based curriculum development based on our work with leading companies. The seminar provides you with the latest approaches and techniques. This seminar will help you if you are beginning a curriculum development effort or if you want to validate existing efforts.

LEARN ABOUT "JUST-IN-TIME" MANAGEMENT TRAINING

In 2005 U.S. businesses spent an estimated $52.7 billion to provide training to more than 52.9 million individuals.* Unfortunately, much of that investment was thrown away because training wasn't delivered when it was needed. This very intensive one-day seminar will help you make sure your company's training investment isn't lost. It will teach you how to design and develop an integrated management training curriclum that is "linked" to your company's mission and culture. You'll learn how to deliver "just-in-time" management training--because training delivered before it's needed is lost through lack of use, and training delivered after it's needed must work to overcome bad habits.
