MGTDEV-Lers, Have any of you used off-the-shelf training needs asessment instruments specifically designed for managers? If so, would you recommend the instrument you used? I like to design my own needs asessment tool, but at the same time, I would like to try out well-tested needs assessments (if such things exist). I am particularly intersted in instruments which allow us to assess both self and supervisor's evaluation (and maybe, peer evaluation) of an individual's managerial skills and his/her training needs. I've so far collected some literature on Talico's NA instruments, HRD Press, HRD Quarterly, and looked into ASTD's NA books (I understand they now sell a NA software,too). Any recommendations and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help. Hannah Robinson
