This book arises from the need of students who have little or no
threshold knowledge of human resource management (HRM) but who need
to link it to their studies in other subjects. Managing People at
Work encourages readers to examine the underlying concepts that
reach out beyond discrete disciplinary boundaries and require
connection with theories from different disciplines and their
common practice wherever it applies to people within a company. The
book also addresses the need to understand and contribute to the
strategic discussions which are expected in senior management
forums. The book describes the links between company strategy,
human resource (HR) planning and implementation using cost--benefit
analysis to illustrate the hard and soft approaches to HRM. It also
looks at evaluating the results of HR in terms of both efficiency
and effectiveness in the main management interventions that lie
within the human resource development activities. Students are
aided with their understanding by activities that lie at the end of
each chapter. These exercises can be done individually or in
tutor-led groups. This book makes clear the links between HRM,
organizational behaviour and strategy, and the theory of HRM is
linked to its claimed HR outcomes sometimes referred to as:
strategic integration commitment quality flexibility. This book
helps to provide MBA and Master's postgraduate students and those
on management trainee programmes or accelerate promotion career
paths with a more detailed understanding of these theories and how
they drive the organization's strategy and decisions about its
people at work.
