ABSTRACT
HRD professionals are in general agreement as to their goals. Most take the
position that HRD should focus on increasing the performance requirements
of its host organizations through the development of the organization’s
workforce (ASTD-USDL, 1990; Bassi, 2014; Knowles, 1990; McLagan,
1989; Swanson, 2007; Swanson and Holton, 2009).
