Review Career Development and Systems Theory / Sense Publishers:The Systems Theory Framework was developed to produce a metatheoretical framework through which the contribution of all theories to our understanding of career behaviour could be recognised. In addition it emphasises the individual as the site for the integration of theory and practice. Its utility has become more broadly acknowledged through its application to a range of cultural groups and settings, qualitative assessment processes, career counselling, and multicultural career counselling. For these reasons, the STF is a very valuable addition to the field of career theory. In viewing the field of career theory as a system, open to changes and developments from within itself and through constantly interrelating with other systems, the STF and this book is adding to the pattern of knowledge and relationships within the career field. The contents of this book will be integrated within the field as representative of a shift in understanding existing relationships within and between theories. In the same way, each reader will integrate the contents of the book within their existing views about the current state of career theory and within their current theory-practice relationship. This book should be required reading for anyone involved in career theory. It is also highly suitable as a text for an advanced career counselling or theory course. The first edition of this book appeared under the title Career Development and Systems Theory: A New Relationship. [+]Reviewers' comments on the first edition: ". a thought provoking addition to career development literature. " Canadian Journal of Counselling ". a landmark in the field of career development. " Australian Journal of Career Development ". it is written in an admirable clear and concise style. " British Journal of Guidance and Counseling.

Review The Mine Management Professions in the Twentieth-Century Scottish Coal Mining Industry / Edwin Mellen Press:This book seeks to redress the exclusion of colliery managers and other mining professionals from the history of British, and particularly Scottish, coal industries. This is accomplished by examining these groups within the most crucial period of their ascendancy in the Scottish coal mining industry, 1930-1966. This work seeks to place such persons within their context and to examine their roles, statuses and behaviours through their relationships with employees and the execution of their functions, also examining their terms and conditions of employment, the outlook of their professional associations, and that of their union. Through all this, Dr. Perchard illustrates how this growing consciousness amongst managerial employees in the industry was accompanied by an intense public discussion, within the mining professions, over their future shape, principles and occupational standards.

Review Transfer of Training: Action-Packed Strategies to Ensure High Payoff from Training Investments / Perseus Books Group:Transfer of Training n 1: the ability of persons to effectively apply to the job the knowledge and skills they gain in off-the-job education 2: learning in one situation that facilitates learning (and therefore performance) in subsequent similar situations 3: a development effort that induces significant new behavior on the job 4: the use of learning in the work situation 5: the maintenance of behavior; anything that maintains an acquired skill or knowledge to a performance standardExperts question the ultimate on-the-job effectiveness of employee development programs. By some estimates, corporations, nonprofit organizations, and governments spend about $50 billion each year for human resource development (HRD) for their employees; yet studies shot that only 10% of classroom learning is applies in the workplace. Today, with demands on corporate wallets coming from all sides, is any wonder that training budgets are often the first to be reduced—or even eliminated? Obviously the need to increase return on investment is of increasing concern to executives, making the transfer of training a crucial issue for today’s trainers. In Transfer of Training, Mary Broad and John Newstron show why the full transfer of learned skills to the workplace is critical for the organization’s growth and survival, and they present a systematic process for bringing managers and trainees into the transfer process so that the diverse workforce can benefit. They offer ways to manage the powerful role of ”manager of the transfer process,” and they provide the tools to get this important job done:.
