The Relationship Between Business Strategy and Human Resource Development in Fortune 500 Companies

Abstract

dc:description

"Results indicate that significant relationships exist between business strategy and HRD. Contrary to much of the literature that presents ""best practices"" in HRD, findings from this study indicate that the best or most effective HRD practices are not necessarily universal across all companies, but rather seem strongly related to the chosen business strategy of the firm. Recommendations for HRD practitioners in business, executives and strategists in business, and HRD educators and researchers are provided."
