Synopsis

This unit deals with the emerging and interdisciplinary field that  is
broadly  defined as human resource development. The main focus  is  on
learning  experiences and interventions that are  intended  to  change
organisational  behaviour  and  to bring  about  improved  performance
improvement  and personal growth. A framework is used to  examine  the
static and dynamic natures of organisations and to consider a range of
issues such as: What is HRD?; The connections between HRD and HRM; The
changing  nature  of  work and careers; Theory and  practicalities  of
training; Performance management, planning and review; and a range  of
strategic HRD considerations.
