The rapidly transforming environment that we live in has made human
resource development (HRD) all the more necessary for the success
of today's organizations. HRD initiatives help their organizations
by developing employees who assist their organizations in not only
surviving, but thriving in our increasingly global world. Today's
best practice or benchmarked organizations and their HRD
professionals continue to recognize the importance of employee
learning, knowledge, skills and motivation to organizational
success. This recognition increasingly opens many doors as
organizational leaders accept the fact that HRD initiatives can be
used to ensure that organization members have what it takes to
successfully meet the demands that confront them and their
organizations. This book takes the position that HRD can
demonstrate how their initiatives help to develop a superior
workforce so that the organization and its individual employees can
accomplish their strategic and operational goals in service to
their clients or customers. This book is written with the belief
that HRD professionals have many opportunities to learn, change and
find ways both in and outside of the workplace to contribute to the
development of learning organizations as we move further into the
21st century. A major point of this book is that HRD will continue
to become more and more important to organizational success when
one considers the increased responsibilities HRD professionals have
taken on during and post- the COVID pandemic. The primary audience
for this book is practicing HRM and HRD professionals, and other
organizational leaders. The book provides proven ideas important to
demonstrating the value of HRD. From a practical viewpoint, it is
based on actual experience, a strong research base, and accepted
practices presented in an easy to read form. A second target
audience is students of HRD and HRM who are preparing for careers
in this important field. This book will help them develop a solid
foundation to the study of HRD practices or initiatives that are
key to HRD success regardless of the type of organization. A third
target audience is managers or leaders at all levels of an
organization who are expected to take on a number of HRD
responsibilities (e.g., as trainers, coaches, mentors, change
agents, and so on) while regularly partnering with HRD
professionals. It offers these individuals a firsthand look at what
they should expect of their HRD functions or areas and how they can
effectively work with HRD professionals in their organizations to
achieve the organizations strategic goals by getting the most out
of its human people.
