Abstract

This introductory chapter provides a conceptual overview of how HRD is enhanced when viewed through an identity lens. Thereby a context is provided for the chapters that follow which collectively demonstrate the range and depth of the identity contribution to this field. To provide this context, the chapter addresses the following questions: what is the nature of contemporary HRD?; what are the theoretical foundations of HRD?; in what ways can identity theorising contribute to HRD research and practice? The latter is the key question addressed.
