Human Resource Development: Critical Perspectives and Practices
рдпреЛ рдЗ-рдкреБрд╕реНрддрдХрдХрд╛ рдмрд╛рд░реЗрдорд╛
This book covers the basic tenets of HRD, interrogates the dominant paradigms and practices of the field, teaches readers how to critically assess HRD practices and outcomes, and provides critical alternatives. The text also addresses HRD as a contested field and the importance for HRD professionals to reflect on their values, maintain their sanity, and retain their employment while attempting to do this difficult work that serves multiple stakeholders.
The text weaves in Points to Ponder, Case in Point, and Tips & Tools features and exercises, giving readers an insight into HRD issues across the globe. This critical text offers an exciting alternative to the instrumentalist, managerialist, and masculine perspective of other books.
Designed for students and practitioners, this textbook will be essential reading for upper-level courses on human resource development, human resource management, and adult education.
