Extract

In the past 25 years, an old social science task — management training and education for the public and private sectors — has spawned a variety of innovative approaches and created a new educational speciality. This new field, usually labeled Human Resources Development (HRD) or Organizational Development (OD), challenges conventional political science and public administration education in a number of important respects. HRD in the 1980s reflects the convergence of two contemporary approaches to learning and management. The first stems from humanistic psychology and its various applications in education; the second from the “behavioral science revolution” in management and organizational theory.
