“…HRD researchers also have emphasized the importance of critical HRD and advocated for research on diversity, inclusiveness, gender differences, spirituality, feminist leadership, sexual orientation, and transformational leadership (Baek & Kim, 2017; Rocco, Munn, & Collins, 2018). HRD research has examined veterans and their transitions from military to civilian careers (Minnis, 2017), explored the use of triple-loop learning to manage diversity (Kwon & Nicolaides, 2017), proposed diversity education as a means of advocating for inclusiveness and diversity (Hite & McDonald, 2010), delineated the research-to-practice gap in women’s career equality (Kossek & Buzzanell, 2018), identified disability as a form of diversity to be addressed by HRD (Nafukho, Roessler, & Kacirek, 2010), and demonstrated that opportunity, diversity, and inclusive employment practices are beneficial for both workers and organizations (Bourke et al, 2017).…”
