As a scholar-practitioner, I place considerable value on the research process, and it is my belief that research must be an important contributor to improving the effectiveness and impact of the HRD profession.…”

“…Using evidence-based approaches is a key part of being a scholar-practitioner (Butin, 2010;Short & Shindell, 2009). With this emphasis in mind, Butin (2010) stated, "It means being cognizant of the complexity around you while nevertheless moving forward in your daily practices" (p. 16).…”
