Human Resource Development

Human Resource Development by Ronan Carbery

This core textbook on human resource development (HRD) focusses on a topic that has emerged as one of the most dynamic and multifaceted areas of business and management for both academics and practitioners. Providing an engaging and succinct discussion of the topic, this textbook tackles HRD from a basic introductory level, covering the major areas of HRD, including strategic HRD, the interaction between leadership, talent management and HRD, and HRD in large and small enterprises. With a unique blend of theory and practice, alongside innovative learning tools such as videos and active case studies, this text will help students to succeed in their HRD courses and to develop important practical skills for their future career. This is the perfect textbook for first and second year undergraduate students, as well as for post-experience students, studying introductory modules on Human Resource Development, Training and Development, or Learning and Development.

'This book provides a compassionate understanding of not only the fundamentals and processes of HRD, but also of the field's contemporary challengesIt offers insights to those who do not fully appreciate the complexity of HRD and validation for those with a hands-on understanding of the general topics within HRD - an erudite but easy guide for students as well as practitioners.' - Jeanette Lemmergaard, Associate Professor of HRM and Head of Department, University of Southern Denmark, Denmark 'I will definitely be recommending this book. The authors have expert knowledge of the field and skilfully analyse the complex relationship between HRM and HRD in a way that is rarely explored in other texts. The book offers a welcome new dimension to the subject and succeeds in integrating theory with a questioning of taken-for-granted assumptions. This balancing of simplicity with complexity and breath with depth makes an ideal introductory text for all students studying people management, including executive MBAs.' - Aileen Lawless, Liverpool Business School, Liverpool John Moores University, UK
