Abstract
Examines the French and UK traditions of management training and education, and how these have shaped organizational approaches to human resource development. Presents results from a Price Waterhouse Cranfield survey which shows data based on human resource issues in European organizations. Concludes that French and UK organizations focus differently on training and development. States that these are clearly a reflection of the legislative and cultural environment in which the organization is operating.Keywords
