About Management: Developing Your People
25th May 2021Chapter 8: Developing Your People
Two questions define staff development. What is it that an employee currently knows, understands, and can do? And secondly, what is it that they need to know, understand, and do? The difference is the development need to be addressed so that the manager gets the performance needed.
This webinar explores the tools at the disposal of the manager. It considers the business case for staff development before looking at the development process and successful training transfer.

What does Exevid mean?
Exevid – ‘from evidence’- is a concept whereby there is no ‘best practice’, only management practice that is right for the firm’s situation and that is supported by evidence from research and experience. The material is taken from our book, Because Your People Matter: a playbook for management excellence.
All About Management is a 30-minute presentation giving an overview of one aspect of management. It’s followed by some time for questions from attendees. We also hope to instil an inquisitiveness in each participant so that they will read further on the topic.
