Master the basics of human resource development with HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT! Providing you with a clear understanding of the concepts, processes, and practices that form the basis of success, this management text shows you how concepts and theory can be put into practice in a variety of organizations. Coverage includes strategic issues in HRD, employee behavior, implementing HRD programs, training, research and statistics, and team-based coverage.
Required for 2nd-level college course on an introduction to HRD, this seemed quite comprehensive, but very dry and bland to read through. There is an incredible amount of information, lists, and bulleted points. The chapters each have objectives at the start and rather concise but complete summaries at the end, which both help enormously.
