Over half of companies are planning to increase spending on training and development for managers by around 10%, with a whopping 88% planning to revamp their management development.

Is your company amongst them?
I often wonder if this isn't looking in the wrong direction entirely. I mean when I look back at all that I know right now, the proportion of that knowledge that was learnt on a course is tiny. I know that spending money makes it easy to measure, but seriously, learning new things should be in the culture of your company and needn't cost a huge sum of money.
