Despite the proliferation of cyber-this and digital-that, many
people prefer to learn by face-to-face communication, and to
acquire job-related skills and knowledge in their own workplace.
Why? Perhaps because the abilities to talk, listen and explain
clearly-in short, to communicate-are given equal shrift. Or because
a fostering of these abilities is the responsibility of everyone in
that workplace. Or even because, pragmatically speaking, such
training can be done easily with a minimum of infrastructure and
support. Whatever the reason, Lyndon Pugh's Practical Training
Techniques speaks plainly and persuasively of the dynamic
relationship between trainer and learner. It argues for the use of
traditional training techniques based on classical ideas,
describing a process that owes as much to Aristotle as to modern
gurus such as Blanchard, Naisbitt and Tapscott. Traditional
training, claims Pugh, is uniquely placed to meet the learning
requirements of modern organizations, precisely because such
organizations value on-site ongoing development over off-site "just
in time" approaches. And while technology undoubtedly can improve
the lot of trainers, as well as the efficiency of the learning
process, belief in its efficacy as the primary channel for learning
delivery is by no means universal. Practical Training Techniques
takes the experts out of learning, and can be used by just about
anyone who needs to train just about anyone else, to do... well,
just about anything!
