An important element of many organisational practices today, action learning has been researched widely and consistently over several decades. The purpose of this study was to elaborate upon the changing landscape of action learning research and practice through a systematic literature review. Employing selection criteria to control for the quality of the articles, we identified 65 empirical action learning studies published 2008–2021. Five key themes were identified to be most prominent in terms of presence and quality: action learning in higher education, action learning research, entrepreneurial action learning, critical action learning, and virtual action learning. In an analysis of the five key themes, we used Coghlan and Coughlan’s four quality criteria for research on action learning: engagement with problems, collaboration with organisational members and stakeholders, reflection on the iterative cycles of an action learning process, and actionable outcomes. This systematic review presents the changing landscape of action learning research and practice manifested in five themes and provides an informed outlook, with expanded scopes and possibilities, to envision the future.","PeriodicalId":47369,"journal":{"name":"HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT INTERNATIONAL","volume":"26 1","pages":"378 - 404"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2022-09-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44549796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

HRD professionals learn to challenge their political context through CHRD teaching and research in the ‘safe space’ of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). Yet, the increasingly global discourse of New Public Management (NPM), associated with what we call new performance measurement, constrains engagement with CHRD. This paper demonstrates the impact of NPM and research performance measurement on HRD scholarship, CHRD agendas, HRD professional development and HRD practice through discourse analysis of Impact Case Studies and their underpinning research as presented in the UK government’s 2014 Research Excellence Framework (REF 2014). Use of national research evaluations with a focus on impact is currently spreading across the globe, and so is of international significance. We identify that although CHRD is consistently adopted in underpinning academic research publications it does not transfer into written impact cases. We conclude that context has the power to silence CHRD, and we challenge CHRD scholars to seek alternative formats to inform practice that do not disguise potential negative impacts. We also caution that silencing critical academic voice diminishes the ability of pedagogic curriculum to challenge and enhance HRD practice.","PeriodicalId":47369,"journal":{"name":"HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT INTERNATIONAL","volume":"26 1","pages":"356 - 377"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2022-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47317780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To overcome the complexity and ambiguity involved in these two concepts in the extant literature, this conceptual article provides an overview of the conceptualization, objectives, levels, approaches, evaluation, and definitional analysis of CD. It then presents a comparison between the concepts of CD and HRD and highlights key similarities and differences.

We particularly examined how this relationship is mediated by organizational trust (OGT) and organizational pride (OP). Data were collected from 144 Lebanese workers who completed measures of VL, OCB, OGT, and OP. Data were analysed using sequential mediation analysis. Significant relationships were found between VL and OCB, while we identified a sequential mediation of OGT and OP between VL and OCB. Thus, organizations wishing to foster OCB need to develop a clear business vision, strengthen trust, and develop practical measures of pride to ensure a high level of OCB that in turn positively impacts organizational outcomes. Through the lens of the social exchange theory (SET), this research makes an original contribution towards the role of VL in supporting OCB through developing trust and pride at the organizational level. We also provide insightful organizational recommendations related to the results.","PeriodicalId":47369,"journal":{"name":"HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT INTERNATIONAL","volume":"26 1","pages":"264 - 291"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2022-08-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43631443","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The unprecedented outbreak of COVID-19 brought a paradigmatic shift in educational work cultures from supporting primarily face-to-face teaching to online teaching. The global pandemic posed substantial, unique challenges for HRD professionals in educational institutions as they sought to best manage the sudden change. Drawing from the HRD literature we found two promising research variables, job crafting and employee engagement that could help mitigate the ill effects of COVID-19 on performance and satisfaction in higher educational institutions. Based on the Job Crafting Theory (JCT) and Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) theoretical frameworks, we developed a conceptual model and examined the relationships among COVID-19 Impact, employee job performance, and satisfaction. We used a carefully crafted survey instrument and collected data from 640 faculty members working in educational institutions. After checking the instrument’s psychometric properties using the LISREL software of structural equation modelling, we used Hayes’s PROCESS for testing the hypothesized relationships. The results indicate that COVID-19 Impact is negatively related to job performance and satisfaction. However, the results also support that performance is a mediator in the relationship between COVID-19 Impact and satisfaction. Further, job crafting acted as a moderator in reducing the negative effect of COVID-19 on performance. Perhaps most importantly, employee engagement (second moderator) moderates the moderated-mediation relationship between job crafting (first moderator) and COVID-19 Impact on satisfaction, mediated through employee performance. Overall, the study results reveal that the three-way interaction between COVID-19 Impact, job crafting, and employee engagement on employee performance provides a novel way of explaining the complex relationships in minimizing the adverse effects of the global pandemic. The implications for HRD theory and practice are discussed.","PeriodicalId":47369,"journal":{"name":"HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT INTERNATIONAL","volume":"25 1","pages":"600 - 630"},"PeriodicalIF":6.3,"publicationDate":"2022-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44786933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
