"This Handbook is sure to become a key resource for any researcher
or professional looking for the latest and most innovative thinking
from around the world on the full range of topics related to
training, development, and performance management." Bradford S.
Bell, PhD, Cornell University, USA. Editor, Personnel Psychology "I
wish I could have accessed this book many years ago. Comprehensive
and scholarly, the four sections training, e-learning, personal and
professional development and performance management fit well
together and address a gap in the literature that has been apparent
for some time. The psychological perspective speaks to growing
interest in the micro-foundations of strategic success, and the
blending together of both formal and informal perspectives on
learning in organizations ensures a holistic rather than piecemeal
approach to the question of how to build individual knowledge,
skills, and competences in organizations. I believe that this book
will make a significant impact on its target audience in this
critical area." Helen Shipton, Professor of International Human
Resource Management, Nottingham Trent University, UK The Wiley
Blackwell Handbook of the Psychology of Training, Development, and
Performance Improvement provides up-to-date, contemporary
information for researchers and professionals by reviewing the
latest literature and research in the interconnected fields of
training, development, and performance appraisal. It brings a
psychological perspective to bear on a multidisciplinary field that
links to management, human resources, and education. Unique to
reference works in this area, it maintains a truly global focus on
the field with top international contributors looking at research
and practice from around the world, including South America,
Europe, Canada, and Australia, as well as the United States and the
United Kingdom. The chapters cover a diverse range of important
contemporary topics, such as needs analysis, job design, active
learning, self-regulation, simulation approaches, 360-degree
feedback, and virtual learning environments. Together, they offer
researchers and professionals essential information for building a
talented organization, a critical and challenging task for
organizational success in the twenty-first century.
