What is strategic HRM, and how do you apply it in business? What makes good HR strategy and how do you develop it? What are the key issues that need to be considered when creating, developing, and embedding a strategic approach to managing people? These are the fundamental questions asked by HR professionals and tackled in this innovative and comprehensive textbook.
Drawing on the latest academic research, the well-respected author team take a reliably thematic approach to SHRM. Broken into four distinct parts, the book addresses the context, theories, themes, and future of managing people strategically. Tata Motors, Samsung, Pizza Express, and Deliveroo make up some of the case studies and examples that feature across the book, ensuring that theoretical discussion is always linked to practical application. New 'Strategic HRM in
Action' boxes take this one step further by presenting students
with a scenario in which they themselves can make strategic
decisions and reflect on their own evaluation of real-life business
practices.
Critical thinking is essential in SHRM, so frequent
Critical Reflection boxes, Review Questions, and questions or
activities to accompany every case study ensure students are
challenged to engage with the subject critically and reflectively,
and consider their own evaluations of the essential theories and
the strategic practices adopted by different organizations. Global
case studies and an opening chapter dedicated to the global context
of SHRM challenge the dominant Western perspective and provide a
rounded and adaptable view of SHRM.
A user-friendly structure and
wide range of learning features, including learning objectives, key
concept boxes, and summaries, ensure the text remains accessible,
even for those completely new to SHRM, allowing all students to
benefit from the book's ideal balance between the latest academic
theory and contemporary, real-world practice.
