Unit 1 Discussion 1 Theory into practice discussion [[NEW]] Draw from the instructional materials and your personal as
well as professional experiences to answer the Discussion Questions below. In order to participate in a dialogue
designed to explore the issues, be sure you respond to at least two of your colleague's responses for each question.
Also, make sure you respond to any questions others may ask of you during this unit. Remember that this is a
discussion, so keep your responses succinct and to the point. You have read about the evolution of Human Resource
Development and the relationship between HRD/Training and HRM; those influences that affect employee behavior and
learning and its effect on HRD design systems in organizations. Assume that an organization has the following three
strategic objectives: Reduce employee turnover by 10% by 2011. Increase product output by 20% by 2011. Empower
line employees to make decisions by the end of 2010. Based on the andragogical research, two questions arise:
Assignment Checklist: 1. Compare traditional versus strategic HRD. 2. Explain how HRD can align employee
development with the given strategic objectives. 3. Evaluate three internal and three external factors that influence
employee behavior regarding employee development. Topic 1: HRD Management Management wants employee
development in the company to be more strategic. What does this statement mean? What can HRD management do to
ensure employee development in alignment with the strategic objectives as stated above? Topic 2: HRD Factors From
your perspective and the readings, what are at least three internal and external factors that will influence employee
development by 2011? (Chapter 2) Given that this DBQ is really two questions (Topic One and Topic Two) indicate in
your Subject Line which Q you are addressing. In the Subject Line enter either "Topic One" or "Topic Two" as
appropriate. You should have two separate DB answer posts, one for Topic One and one for Topic Two.
NOTE: USE THE RUBRICS IN DOC SHARING FOR YOUR ASSIGNMENTS THIS TERM. The course has a lack of
good alignment between course assignment descriptions and the course rubrics. At times, the course assignment does
not pair well with the assigned activity/article/reading. The simplest solution to this alignment problem has been for me to
merge the course assignment descriptions, course rubrics and assigned activities to ONE rubric. Use this rubric to
shape/inform your assignments. I will follow it closely in my assessment of your unit subject mastery.
