| Summary: | This section presents numerous insights and effort towards defining
and developing a concept of HRD. These insights have contributed
to the notion of HRD itself. One cannot discuss HRD without
acknowledging the various disciplines from which it has borrowed
(Brooks and Nafukho, 2006).
The HRD concept emerges from the classical approach
in management principles (Taylorism – scientific management),
productivity improvement (Howthorne studies – behaviorism) and
teamwork and group dynamics (Tavistock Institute and T-groups). So
many scholars from various fields (industrial psychology, organization
behavior, management, industrial relations, engineering etc) have
contributed in improving the performance of individuals, processes
and organizations (Wimbiscus, 1995). |
