6. Respondents now should be ready to prepare Part One action plans to take back<br />

to their workplaces, in which they detail how they will implement the new<br />

before they leave the session.<br />

7. Finally, respondents use their Part Two patterns to respond to the action-plan<br />

questions. Again, it is useful for respondents to share their results with one<br />

another before they leave the session.<br />

action-planning activities for Parts One and Two also may be combined.<br />

traditional PLOCS model <strong>of</strong> management training.<br />

used in <strong>organizations</strong> that are seeking to improve their management training and<br />

development activities.<br />

3. To identify the features <strong>of</strong> a new body <strong>of</strong> competencies that can be included in<br />

future-oriented management training and development programs.<br />

4. To provide a basis for discussion about the relationship between the present<br />

competencies <strong>of</strong> an organization’s managers and the demands that the emerging<br />

business environment will place on those same managers.<br />

a more contemporary style <strong>of</strong> management.<br />
