Purpose of management development
Managers are an integral part of the decision-making processes of organizations.[4] Therefore, management development is a crucial factor in improving their performance. A management development program may help reduce employee turnover, improve employee satisfaction, better able a company to track manager performance,[5] improve managers' people management skills, improve management productivity and morale, and prepare managers for technological change.[6]
Action learning
Many management qualifications now have an action learning element. Action learning asserts that individuals learn best from hands-on experience.
Coaching
Coaching is a teaching, training or development process in which an individual is supported while achieving a specific personal or professional result or goal. Coaching is an effective learning tool that affects the bottom line and productivity, as well as intangible benefits. It aids in the improvement of individual performance, tackles underperformance, and aids in the identification of personal learning needs.
Management education
One of the biggest growth areas in UK education since the early 1980s has been the growth of university-level management education.[citation needed] In addition to weekly part-time attendance at college/university, many students employ distance learning. The number of UK business schools grew from two in the early 1970s, to over one hundred providers.
Selection on the basis of psychological traits
A study of oil-industry middle-management in Iran suggests advantages in selecting middle managers on the basis of self-reliance, self-efficiency, building trust, and legal attitude.[7]
Management development programme
Large corporates and management institutes conduct management-development programmes[8] (MDP)[9][10] in order to enable current and prospective managers to develop an understanding of management concepts, practices, approaches and perspectives. The participants receive an immersive learning experience, are encouraged to provide insights on situational problems, and are exposed to the views of other participants in their group. Through this process, they gain problem-solving skills and analytical-thinking abilities.
