Effective Human Resource Development

Human resource development is a new concept. People are considered resource/asset that contribute best to the achievement of organizational goals. It subscribes to the notion that people are different from other non-human resources and they need empowerment, involvement, satiation of psychological needs, congenial culture and conducive climate to manifest their worth, efficiency, commitment to their work and to the organization. So HRD is basically a strategic approach to procurement, motivation and development of human resources.
