MDF is published twice a year by the FORUM Management Education
program at the State University of New York - Empire State College. This
publication is distributed to human resource professionals, trainers, and
consultants engaged in management development and education. MDF serves as
a pool for new theory and practical knowledge that will support human
resource professionals seeking to enhance management training, education,
and development in their organizations. We are seeking only articles well
grounded in accepted theory, and presenting a balance of research and
practical implications.
Topics of interest include change and innnovation, competency-based
management development, human resource management, leadership
effectiveness, organizational learning and development, total quality
management and continuous improvement, self-management, and management
education.
The objectives of this journal are to:
- stimulate innovative thinking,
- share new developments and ideas, and
- report on new techniques and intervention programs relevant to
managers.
