Findings

Human resource development (HRD) is a critical factor in the efficiency and competitiveness of both large and small organizations, but small companies traditionally do not, or cannot, devote sufficient resources to this area of management. Essi Saru, in an article entitled “Organizational learning and HRD: how appropriate are they for small firms?” examines this predicament through literature review and a case study, and poses possible solutions.

The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world's leading organizations.

The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy‐to‐digest format.
