HRD: working at the boundaries and interfaces of organisations

McCarthy, Alma; Garavan, Thomas; O�Toole, Thomas

Abstract

This paper argues that human resource development (HRD) can make an important contribution in facilitating the effective management of boundaries and interfaces in organisations. Organisations are increasingly required to network and collaborate both internally and externally in order to achieve key strategic objectives. HRD can facilitate and contribute to this process at four levels of intervention.
