Editor's note
=============

This week, we preview next month's feature with a look at some
new resources on management development, designed for the ISM
Diploma in Management but just as useful for in-house management
development programmes. Over the next few weeks, we'll be
highlighting more resources designed to help with developing both
new and established management roles, together with related
feature articles and Any Answers questions looking at the
subject. If you'd like to contribute, do get in touch.

p.s. If your company falls into the SME category, our new-look
sister site is a great source of advice and information. Check
it out at https://www.businesszone.co.uk
