HRD is a tough gamble. There are just about as many ways to handle HRD as there are people in New York City. An article by Udaya Mohan Devadas titled Human Resource Development and the Contemporary Challenges of the World talks about many of these forces and challenges affect HRD today. Devadas poses four main forces that affect human resource development. Those forces are (1) flexibility of the program, (2) the globalization need for HRD, (3) the modern changing workforce, and (4) the use and implementation of technology. These forces are very important to creating and implementing a functional HRD program and demand focus.
The author also poses a few challenges that are presented in today's workplace. Creating social justice, paying attention to women's workplace experiences, advocating change and addressing undiscussables are very important fields that need improvement. Undiscussables include sexism, racism, patriarchy, and violence. So there are a few ways to help these programs within a company and here they are. Conducting more research in proper HRD techniques can never hurt. Many programs are just poorly established. New approaches to discussing the undiscussables is a must. It is time to break the taboo. Focusing on problems that hinder development is crucial as well as developing innovative theoretical processes to change the field completely. The main point of this article seems to be that there needs to be emerging research in the field to help the new needs of human resource development. Research with modern outlooks and traditional based knowledge blended together. The article can be found at this LINK.
