As the topic of talent development (TD) gets more popularity in practice organizations and among human resource (HRD) professionals, need for understanding nature scope TD activities increases. The aim this article is to help through an integrative review literature. part article, definitions perspectives toward talent-related literature have been analyzed a comprehensive definition suggested. Moreover, four major themes within identified: (a) issues related career development, (b) influence...

Abstract Using topic mapping techniques, we provide a review of the 3,236 articles published in five premier HRD journals between 1990 and 2019. We map key terms evidencing emergence major clusters within scholarship: nature identity HRD, interventions outcomes, national career development, academia. Nature depicts movement from establishing foundations to expanding horizons. outcomes reflects spectrum research interests exploring processes examining desired outcomes. National shows that...

The daily influence of new technologies on shaping and reshaping human lives necessitates attention to the ethical development future computing workforce. To improve computer science students’ decision-making, it is important know how they make decisions when face issues. This article contributes research practice ethics education by identifying factors that decision-making students providing implications process. Using a constructivist grounded theory approach, data from text discussion...

Despite growing efforts, diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives have yet to address long-standing engineering participation disparities. Often, diversity issues, along with other societal challenges, are perceived as unrelated engineering. Conversely, currently practiced taught is embedded in dominant culture norms that frequently invisible the majority of students faculty. One strategy shift this erroneous "neutral" perspective integrate into curricula. Using inclusive professional...

Abstract Work ethic, a construct of work‐related values and attitudes, is believed to have direct impact on how people approach work, work behavior, on‐the‐job performance. When experience social transformations, their attitudes change. The Chinese society has experienced significant transformations over an extended period economic reform. This study designed develop validate ethic instrument that can be used measure current people's attitudes. To sensitive the context, this follows process...

Evaluations are practiced in political contexts, posing ethical dilemmas to evaluators. It is important, therefore, prepare evaluation students for decision-making their future evaluative work. This study explores the use of scenario-based moral reasoning and argumentation as an instructional strategy teaching ethics a group graduate enrolled online course on program evaluation. The participating were asked discuss scenario asynchronous format during five consecutive weeks. results suggested...

Human resource development is known to encapsulate a collection of social science disciplines including communications, psychology, and economics. Since these other similar areas are the cornerstones HRD, changing nature HRD demands constant reflections on value building blocks contemporary inquiries. This article presents citation analysis articles published in Resource Development Quarterly from 2007 2013 provide an overview various contributed research. A total 5,807 citations were...

Abstract Purpose. Ethics is too-often relegated to a stand-alone course taken late in engineering programs, rather than effectively integrated into core coursework [1, 2]. Faculty sometimes have concerns that such integration will be challenging for students manage or might distract them from content. However, ethics-across-the-curriculum helps understand the link between work and its positive negative impacts also see ethical considerations as part of engineering, an add-on [2, 3]. In this...

This exploratory study aims to identify the core competencies necessary successfully advance careers of female associate professors in higher education. To ascertain these career competencies, a critical incident interview technique was employed. One-to-one semi-structured interviews with six full at major research university Midwestern region United States were conducted. Based on participants’ advancement experiences, following identified: (1) making important connections, (2) fulfilling...

Abstract Engineers are likely to face issues related ethics, and the connections between ethics diversity, equity, inclusion, justice in their careers. Understanding experiences of engineers can guide development education, training, other interventions promote ethical equitable professional cultures. The early-career as they transition into practice shape future attitudes actions social equity work do, workplace. This NSF-funded project uses a sequential mixed-methods approach study with...

Abstract The evolving work environment of engineering practice challenges early career civil and environmental engineers with unprecedented ethical dilemmas. This research delves into some the faced by these young professionals as they transition navigate complexities their careers. We collected information, through in-depth interviews, on dilemmas are processing data to summarize them in case study formats. Our initial findings revealed numerous challenges. Early often struggle balancing...

Abstract As new engineers transition from educational settings to professional careers, they face the imperative task of acquiring not only technical expertise but also hands-on experience and practical insights be effective in their engineering work. This experiential learning encompasses problem-solving, critical thinking, project management, communication, collaboration with multidisciplinary teams, adaptability industry trends, a profound understanding real-world constraints challenges....

This article contains a conversation with K. Peter Kuchinke, Professor and Director of Graduate Studies at the Department Education Policy, Organization Leadership, University Illinois Urbana-Champaign. The aim is to reflect upon factors that influenced his professional personal development life experiences as lens understand contributions field. For past 30 years, career has focused on HRD research scholarly practice. He published over 150 refereed articles book chapters, lectures widely...

Abstract Engineering educators strive to prepare their students for success in the engineering workforce. Increasingly, many career paths will require graduates work multi-disciplinary teams with individuals possessing a diversity of skill sets, backgrounds and identities. Working effectively implementing inclusive practices relies on attitudes skills that can be learned developed by undergraduate students. These integrated into team-based assignments, provided assignments are designed teach...

Abstract The goal of our NSF funded project is to change the culture engineering and computer science departments by creating, implementing, assessing new curriculum aimed at developing inclusive professional identities in students. Students with possess necessary technical skills for their discipline also recognize value diverse perspectives designing technology solving problems. With this recognition they strive work ways take full advantage diversity. This builds on a previous pilot first...
