Training Practice as Communication Medium: A Throughput Model

Abstract

We join the ORGanic conversation by introducing our throughput-based approach to evaluating organizational training. Our investigation of organizational training is organic in two senses. First, organic describes how fundamental elements in nature relate in dynamic interconnections and constitute the very substance of life itself. We argue that organizational training comes to life through the dynamic interconnections among the fundamental elements of all training communication: training content, process, and trainer. Second, organic refers to natural growth and evolution. Metaphorically, our theory development grew and evolved out of our extensive experiences in the field observing organizational training as it happened.
