The Problem There has been sparse research on the intersectional nature of the leadership practices of women of color since the last special issue in Advances in Developing Human Resources (ADHR). Included here are insights and recommendations for HRD practitioners and scholars on developing women leaders of color. The Solution In this concluding article, we make recommendations for future theory and practice centered on leadership for women of color using Amanda Gorman's 2021 inaugural poem as a backdrop. Stakeholders In order to encourage further thought and action for researchers and practitioners in Human Resource development (HRD), this article is intended to provoke thought on women leaders of color and provide impetus toward future HRD scholarship.

Problem The implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) is assumed to lead to increased productivity of knowledge workers. However, AI could also have negative effects on the development of professional expertise. Solution A review of the literature on expertise development is provided, followed by examples of AI implementation in a knowledge-intensive profession, accounting. The analysis of these examples suggests that automation can result in the loss of expertise due to reduced opportunities for learning from deliberate practice and experienced colleagues, and from working on progressively more complex tasks. Implications for human resource development (HRD) include creating alternative individual development opportunities and promoting organizational cultures conducive to expertise development in human-machine interaction modes. Stakeholders The results of this study will be of interest to scholars of HRD, accounting education, and human-machine interaction. Practical implications will be of relevance to HRD professionals and managers responsible for the implementation of artificial intelligence solutions.

Problem The important role played by executive coaching in the development of leaders is well established in the literature. While some scholars suggest that executive coaching fosters transformative learning (TL), there is insufficient empirical evidence to support this. Solution This study set out to investigate the process of TL in executive coaching from the coachee’s perspective. A longitudinal multiple case study was adopted to examine how three key transformative learning elements—disorienting dilemma, critical reflection, and rational dialogue—occurred in an executive coaching engagement and the learning outcomes that emerged. A key finding was that, in addition to the three accepted elements, there is a fourth element (acceptance) that precedes the rational dialogue. The results of this study informed the development of a transformative learning model, which could guide future research, theory, and practice in the field of human resource development (HRD). Stakeholders The study will benefit scholars and practitioners in the fields of human resource development, executive coaching and leadership development.

Problem The world is undergoing digital transformation accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in several paradoxes, such as isolation versus increased accessibility, and structure versus flexibility. With many joining Virtual Human Resource Development (VHRD), the relationship of online teaching and learning to VHRD is understudied, thus necessitating exploration. Solution The complexity of virtual environments, dual emphasis on formal and informal learning, and the socio-cultural nature of large digital networks and learning management systems are explored. This article describes selected connections, presents recommended practices and implications for online instruction from the VHRD perspective, discusses digital tools for instructors and trainers, and presents cautions. Stakeholders Learning professionals are encouraged to dance within the paradox to promote learning agility for adapting within digital transformation and to use both high tech and low tech designs to shape resilient learners who combine hard and soft skills valuable for organizations that are increasing the use of artificial intelligence applications.

Networking behavior helps enhance employees’ success in work and career domains, but importantly, it may be helpful for organizations in improving their ability to coordinate, internally and externally, and innovate. Based on existing literature, critical factors that serve as antecedents of employee networking within organizations, including individual and organizational factors, are identified. Next, potential challenges employees may encounter in networking are highlighted. To conclude, several actions human resource development (HRD) practitioners can take to promote networking behavior within organizations and its associated benefits are discussed.

It is not uncommon for our journals to feature sections on Implications for Human Resource Development (HRD) research and theory to practice. It is time that we center our focus more on HRD education, specifically diversity and social justice education where students learn to be morally just human beings and to practice social justice goals in their work. Hite andMcDonald (2010) brought a Special Issue on diversity education and highlighted deficiencies in higher education curriculum that could provide students with the skills and competencies needed to respond to diversity and inclusion issues in the real world of work. Similarly, Collins (2017) challenged us to think how the horizons of undergraduate students might be expanded by engaging in diversity and inclusion coursework that exposes them to the work of HRD practitioners. This premier edition of Insights for HRD Education will explore HRD diversity and social justice education beyond coursework and the classroom and offer a unique perspective of how one HRD educator is equipping students with practical skills to become more responsive to social justice as a foundation for social change.

Problem: Disability issues have long been a topic at the margins of HRD research and have rarely been examined outside the United States context or with a focus on a specific disability type. Additionally, largely due to a homogeneous national culture, people with disabilities in South Korea experience unique barriers in career development. Solution: The authors report the findings of a multiple case study on the career attainment experiences of lawyers with visual impairments in South Korea. Data analyzed from interviews with five participants showed that various individual (perseverance, identity as a person with a visual impairment, self-advocacy, and strategic mindset) and social (family and peer support, reasonable accommodation, precedent, and having a leader with a vision for inclusion) factors contributed to their career attainment. Stakeholders: The findings of this study can aid organizational leaders, hiring managers, HRD practitioners in charge of providing reasonable accommodations, and educators of people with disabilities.
