Summary:"Career Development: A Human Resource Development Perspective offers a strategic framework that demonstrates the role of career development within the human resource function. It goes beyond conventional interventions, providing an interdisciplinary perspective inclusive of occupational psychology and career guidance theory, for an expansive and inclusive understanding of the topic.
