Abstract

Organizations have focused on heterogeneity, which has a significant impact on human resources development. By studying the correlations among heterogeneity and training development, career development, organizational development, management development, the impact dimensions of heterogeneity on human resource development were revealed. This study compared the differences of human resource development needs for different explicit heterogeneity by using one-way ANOVA and multiple comparisons analysis and found there were significant differences in human resource development needs for employees with different job positions, job responsibilities, organizational nature, organizational size and industry.
