In this eighth episode of Season 5, I meet with guests Dr. Brian Vivona (Northeastern Illinois University), Dr. Stephanie Sisco (University of Minnesota), and Dr. Ronan Carbery (University College Cork) to discuss how to prepare the next generation of HRD professionals. We discuss:

• How do we see the work of HRD professionals changing over the next 10-15 years?
• What do these changes mean in terms of the skills and knowledge needed by HRD professionals? 
• How can degree programs prepare HRD professionals for all of this?
• How does this impact who transitions into HRD from other professions and how they transition?
• and much more.
