Given the relentless pace of change in the world of work, the importance and status of human resource development is on the rise and its centrality to the delivery of organizational and societal objectives is without doubt. In the Sage Handbook of Human Resource Development Tonette Rocco, Lane Morris, and Rob Poell assemble leading global contributors to map the current contours of the field and chart the key questions which we should consider in moving the field forward. The Handbook is impressive for its breath of coverage topically, theoretically, and geographically. I highly recommend it for any researcher or reflective practitioner seeking a state-of-the-art overview of the field of HRD.

David Collings
Professor of Sustainable Business, Trinity Business School, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland

I know of no single resource that rivals the Handbook for covering both the breadth and depth of the HRD field. Its editors and authors are to be congratulated. The Handbook truly constitutes a ‘one stop shop’ for developing an understanding all things HRD. In a single comprehensive volume, it addresses the field’s historical development and theoretical foundations, key field components such as adult education, workplace based workforce development, career development, organizational development, and leadership, and opens readers’ mind and imagination to emerging issues and future direction in domains as varied as how AI is both disrupting and enhancing HRD practice and how DEIB (diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging) focused HRD research informs HRD practice.

Stephen Mangum
Dean and Stokely Foundation Leadership Chair, Haslam College of Business, University of Tennessee-Knoxville, United States

The Handbook features the perspectives of well-known established and emerging HRD scholars from around the world. It provides a comprehensive review of HRD including its foundations, current trends, practices, and research findings shaping the discipline as well as emerging issues influencing its future. As a result, it is a “must-read” for HRD academics, practitioners, and students.
