Critical Thinking in Human Resource Development

Herausgeber: Elliott, Carole; Turnbull, Sharon

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides a reflexive critique of the assumptions of orthodox HRD research and practice and questions the conception of humans as resources, as well as the conventional performative focus of HRD. Examining the broader social, political and economic contexts, the book offers alternative perspectives for considering both the needs of individuals and the sustainable development of organizations in post-industrial economies.
