Abstract
The problem and the solution .A fundamental approach to strategic human resource development (SHRD) planning is to present human resource development (HRD) investment as a viable solution to advance the organizational interactions. We examine two specific instances of interactions: the interactions between the firm and the employee, and the interactions between HRD and other functional areas within the firm. The prescriptive solution arising from the analyses presented here is a Nash equilibrium encouraging the firm to invest in frequent and continuous HRD. For HRD professionals, the prescriptive solution lies in providing measurable productivity and performance gains to organizational decision makers.
