In an era of increasing globalization, human resources have been considered as the ultimate competitive advantage for corporations (Pfeffer 1994), fostering the rapid spread of a new model of human resources training centered on personal development (Monahan, Meyer, and Scott 1994). Actual and perceived globalization has played an important part in the rise and diffusion of this new ‘human resources’ culture.
