The synolic approach to human resource development

Abstract

The synolic approach to human resource development has been developed to help consultants and practitioners obtain a comprehensive perspective of the elements that contribute to HRD in terms of improving individual performance. Examines the key elements that need to be diagnosed and reviewed to ensure that all key issues can be actioned. Management trainers, OD practitioners and executives from all sizes of organizations can benefit from the messages. As we enter the twenty‐first century, with downsizing and outsourcing of organizations, what is left of executives will need to be highly effective, versatile, flexible and high performers.
