Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.
Design/methodology/approach
This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.
Findings
Investing in training and development HRM practices enables companies to show their employees that they are valued. Employee response is likelier to be positive when the investment is perceived in terms of social exchange reflecting a long-term relationship based on mutual trust rather than more impersonal economic exchange where concern for the employee is minimal.
Originality/value
The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
