Fundamentals of Human Resource Development

Human Resource Development Masterclass

In this final episode of the first series of HRD Masterclass, Darren Short reflects back on what we’ve learned about the fundamentals of HRD, supported by extracts taken from some of the 34 conversations featured in the series. Darren also spotlights a few conversations that he finds himself revisiting over and over again, together with some of the questions that he will carry forward to the second series that releases later this year.
During the episode, Darren explores:

• How we define ourselves.
• How HRD is responding to the changing workplace.
• The shifting balance between organizational and individual responsibility.
• Changes to how people learn.
• Advocating for social justice.
• Working across cultures.
• Being strategic.
• Demonstrating our worth.
• How HRD works through and with others.
• The gap between HRD research and practice.
