Summary:Scholars in Human Resource Development (HRD) are debating that HRD should have bigger role that is beyond training and should strategically be linked to business planning in order for HRD to help organization implement its business strategies.

This paper aims to discuss some empirical evidences on how HRD is viewed and used according to strategic HRD model. The perceptions of 58 MNCs practitioners in Malaysia are valued to report the findings.
