Summary: | Employee skills and motivation are critical for organizational success. This has
always been true, but the pace and volume of modern change is drawing
increased attention to the ways that human resource development (HRD) activities
can be used to ensure that organization members have what it takes to successfully
meet their challenges. While there is solid evidence that HRD works, it is not a
magic bullet. The challenges many organizations face are complex, and new
dimensions, such as globalization and an increasingly diverse workforce, make it
more difficult to ensure HRD efforts will succeed. Unless those responsible for
training and development make informed choices about the content of a developmental
experience and the methods of delivering it, the results of many HRD
efforts will fail to meet expectations.
Fortunately, there is a growing base of theory, research, and practical experience
to support HRD efforts. We wrote this book to help students, HRD professionals,
and managers at all levels take advantage of this knowledge and experience.
We firmly believe that if they do so, they will increase their effectiveness, along
with that of individuals with whom they work and the organizations of which
they are a part. |
