Summary: | <p>Transfer of learning is a necessary step between learning and performance. This article is based upon a quantitative survey, studying the main transfer inhibiting and enhancing conditions from a public management program in the Belgian public sector. The statistical results demonstrate that individual and program characteristics determine primarily the transfer of what has been learned. This allows both researchers and practitioners to focus on the most obvious independent variables in order to increase the effectiveness of management and leadership development, i.e. the link between the program and the general HRM-processes in the organization, the opportunities provided to the participant and the communication towards the participant and his/her colleagues. Apart from that, the impact of the selection procedure for enrolment has a determining role on the program’s success.</p> |
