Learning times: A key factor in managerial personnel decisions

Michael L. Moore

Abstract

How often should a man be inducted, socialized, trained, developed, and then promoted or transferred from one department to another? The answer should depend to some extent on the average learning time for the manager's new job, and the company's feeling about a “break‐even” or “pay‐back” period when the employee works to “pay back” the organization for providing him with the job learning opportunity.
