Abstract
The purpose of this article is to promote knowledge and understanding about the concept and utility of Virtual Human Resource Development (VHRD) for both research and practice in Human Resource Development (HRD). This article begins with a brief history of VHRD, defines VHRD, and then presents an appendix that summarizes key insights from 36 VHRD peer-reviewed publications located across five academic journals and 52 authors associated with this line of inquiry. The article then discusses challenges and opportunities associated with VHRD as a result of this summary which may be insightful for researchers and practitioners. It concludes by considering the implications of VHRD along with offering directions for future research in the VHRD space.
期刊介绍：
As described elsewhere, Human Resource Development Review is a theory development journal for scholars of human resource development and related disciplines. Human Resource Development Review publishes articles that make theoretical contributions on theory development, foundations of HRD, theory building methods, and integrative reviews of the relevant literature. Papers whose central focus is empirical findings, including empirical method and design are not considered for publication in Human Resource Development Review. This journal encourages submissions that provide new theoretical insights to advance our understanding of human resource development and related disciplines. Such papers may include syntheses of existing bodies of theory, new substantive theories, exploratory conceptual models, taxonomies and typology developed as foundations for theory, treatises in formal theory construction, papers on the history of theory, critique of theory that includes alternative research propositions, metatheory, and integrative literature reviews with strong theoretical implications. Papers addressing foundations of HRD might address philosophies of HRD, historical foundations, definitions of the field, conceptual organization of the field, and ethical foundations. Human Resource Development Review takes a multi-paradigm view of theory building so submissions from different paradigms are encouraged.
