Human Resource Management in Small Business - Achieving Peak Performance (Hardcover)

Human Resource Management in Small Business fills a gap in our understanding of economic performance. Small businesses are more numerous, have more employees, and contribute more to the economies of nations throughout the world than do large organizations. This book examines a range of issues, including the significance of human resource management (HRM) practices to small business success, the management of work hours and work stressors, work and family issues, succession planning, employee recruitment and selection, and managing staff. It also explores how individuals develop HRM skills, and learn from their own and others' experiences. The role of HRM practices in successful small businesses is illustrated through a range of case studies.Including contributors who are internationally recognized academics from a range of countries; this book will prove to be an essential resource for postgraduate students and academics in management. Professional managers and owners in SMEs will also discover great insights from this admirable book. Contributors include: R. Burke, G. Castrogiovanni, S. Clarke, C. Collins, E. Drew, S. Fielden, M. George, E. Hamilton, C. Henry, A.-L. Humbert, A. Noblet, T. Pett, J. Pollack, A. Rauch, G. Seijts, M. Troilo
