Sound HRM practices matter-they are a sine qua non of effective
governance in democratic government-equally so at the local,
regional, state and national levels of government. The NASPAA
(Network of Schools of Public Policy, Affairs, and Administration)
accreditation standards demand critical competencies for public
managers that are vital to human resource managers and supervisors
at all levels. These competencies include: skills to lead and
manage in public governance; to participate in and contribute to
the policy process; to analyze, synthesize, think critically, solve
problems and make decisions; to articulate and apply a public
service perspective; and to communicate and interact productively
with a diverse and changing workforce and citizenry. This second
edition of Human Resource Management is designed specifically with
these competencies in mind to: Introduce and explore the
fundamental purposes of human resource management in the public
service and consider the techniques used to accomplish these
purposes Provide exercises to give students practice for their
skills after being introduced to the theory, foundation, and
practices of public and nonprofit sector HRM Facilitate instruction
of the material by introducing important topics and issues with
readings drawn from the professional literature Provide information
and examples demonstrating the interrelatedness of many of the
topics in public sector HRM and the trends shaping public and
nonprofit management, especially diversity, ethics, and technology.
Demonstrate and describe differences among HRM practices in public,
for-profit and nonprofit organizations, and between the levels of
government. Human Resource Management is organized to provide a
thorough discussion of the subject matter with extensive references
to relevant literature and useful teaching tools. Thus, students
will consider the issues, purposes, and techniques of HRM and
conceptualize how varied their roles are, or will be, whether a
personnel specialist in a centralized system or a supervisor
managing in one of the increasingly common decentralized systems.
Each chapter includes a thorough review of the principles and
practices of HRM (including the why and the how), selected
readings, important themes, diverse examples, key terms, study
questions, applied exercises, case studies, and examples of forms
and processes would-be managers will encounter in their roles.
