Evaluation of Management Training ‐Subjectivity and the Individual

Abstract

Evaluation of management training courses is a subject much discussed but, generally speaking, superficially carried out. This article identifies evaluation procedures and highlights their shortcomings. In summary, there is too great an emphasis on providing an objective (and positivistic) evaluation report and too little recognition of subjective and peculiar issues which do not necessarily fit the frame. The article′s concern is to bring these areas to greater attention so that more comprehensive evaluation takes place and, consequently, better training.
