The Future of HRD, Volume II “This outstanding and timely volume brings together a group of distinguished scholars and practitioners who make a provocative advance with their richly textured submissions that people in organisations and businesses matter. That investing in humans as a resource makes good business sense and results in an excellent return on investment. As the world recalibrates during and post Covid-19, the high-quality scholarly submissions in this volume provide institutions and organisations with workable and pragmatic guidance on how to develop this resource. The volume offers easy and accessible ideas to help shape innovative thinking in human resource development, which keeps pace with new developments in how learning happens in organisations and businessessmall and large. Volume 2 is timely and a compelling read which gives us grounds to imagine that a better world is possible. This volume should be mandatory reading for anyone with a stake in human resource development in the New Normal a world post-Covid-19. It provides a productive and doable map into the future of human resource development. Chapter-by-chapter Volume 2 builds the users confidence to unlock the possibilities for a sound, and productive approach to human resource development in a new world perhaps changed forever by a pandemic, worldwide protests for racial equality and social justice, and continuing concern for environmental degradation.” —Ruksana Osman, Professor Deputy Vice-Chancellor, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa UNESCO Research Chair in Teacher Education for Diversity and Development
