I was recently discussing my favourite books on training, development and change management with a colleague and was asked to give my top five. I didn't know where to start. What's more, I couldn't limit it to five. 
How about you? What are your five top book recommendations for Training Managers? I'd love to read about your insights...

My two favorite training books : 

1. Performance Consulting - Moving Beyond Training (Robinson)

2. Instructor Excellence - Mastering the Delivery of Training (Powers)

As far as Change Management I found "Who Moved My Cheese" to be helpful moving my teams (leaders and team members) through change.

Super question and I'd always go for following 5:

1. Who moved my cheese (it's change in 140 pages)

2. Why should anyone be led by you? (As it's an excellent question for anyone in any kind of management or leadership role)

3. How to win friends and influence people (because people slowly seem to be losing the art of relationship building),

4. Good to Great (for departmental and wider business good practice that's sustainable)

5. Maverick (so you're sure it can always be done differently and still be successful!)

Just my opinion so only it's worth what someone else might think of it I guess!

Revolutionize Learning & Development: Performance and Innovation for the Information Age by Clark N. Quinn. It is an ATD (ASTD) book - excellent!
