Management training: what it is and what it means

Management training is a process that alternates three elements: exposure to content, protected application in real situations with contained risk, structured reflection on the experience. It is not an isolated event but a path that works on managing other people's work: delegation, deciding amid conflict, feedback, managing priorities. The combination of the three elements is what separates training that leaves a behavioral trace from training that stays on the shelf.

Distinctive: managing other people's work
