Textbook in PDF format Skills and workforce development are at the heart of much research on work, employment, and management. But are they so important? To what extent can they make a difference for individuals, organizations, and nations? How are the supply and, more importantly, the utilization of skill, currently evolving? What are the key factors shaping skills trajectories of the future? This Handbook provides an authoritative consideration of issues such as these. It does so by drawing on experts in a wide range of disciplines including sociology, economics, labour/industrial relations, human resource management, education, and geography. The Handbook is relevant for all with an interest in the changing nature — and future — of work, employment, and management. It draws on the latest scholarly insights to shed new light on all the major issues concerning skills and training today. While written primarily by leading scholars in the field, it is equally relevant to policy makers and practitioners responsible for shaping the development of human capability today and into the future Introduction—Skills and Training: Multiple Targets, Shifting Terrain / John Buchanan, David Finegold, Ken Mayhew, and Chris Warhurst Concepts, Definitions, and Measurements of Skill Disciplinary Perspectives on Skill / Jane Bryson Skill Builders and the Evolution of National Vocational Training Systems / Cathie Jo Martin The Changing Meaning of Skill: Still Contested, Still Important / Jonathan Payne A New Social Construction of Skill / Chris Warhurst, Chris Tilly, and Mary Gatta Measuring Job Content: Skills, Technology, and Management Practices / Michael J.
