In the later part of 1980s very many innovative practices emerged on the corporate scene. Human Resources Development (HRD) is one discipline which was assumed as a vital activity to develop the business in an organisation. Since then all most all business houses considered HRD as a big factor for their success and established HRD wings in their organisations, formulated HRD policies and appointed HR personnel to implement these policies.
During this period, to give a clear picture of HRD, volumeneous literature was rolled out by publishers and written by great scholars. They tried and analysed the distinction between traditional practices which were called “Personnel Management” and “Human Resources Management (HRM)” as it is called today.
