Opis

Many global companies have been focused upon strategic executive development within a competitive environment. Often this has resulted in complex theoretical models which have had little or no practical application or impact. Leading-edge companies worldwide have established best practice in this area. This book shows how action learning can result in the effective and successful implementation of strategic executive development.
