'In an age where organisations now have to justify spending on complex training and exercising for teams and collective capabilities, this book is long overdue. It provides processes on the elements of team and collective training analysis, gives a toolkit for those involved with the acquisition of related training systems and, more importantly, is an essential guide for those who want to make their training better.' Commander Paul Pine, Royal Navy (Maritime Training Acquisition Organization) 'This is an exceptionally comprehensive look at team and collective training. It provides a rare insight into the methodology of training needs analysis and how it can address the complexities beyond the individual level. The author's credentials are apparent and amply demonstrated in the worked examples and case studies. This is a definitive guide not just to those responsible for training and operational delivery but also those involved in R&D or procurement.' Lt Col (Retd) Guy Wallis, Principal Analyst, Defence Science and Technology Laboratory
