"Staffing Organizations: Contemporary Practice and Theory," the new
third edition of a classic in the field, shows how organizations of
all sizes can use effective staffing procedures as a source of
sustained competitive advantage. Practically, the book shows how to
choose, develop, and administer effective staffing procedures,
including conducting job analyses, defining and measuring job
performance, identifying predictors of performance that are both
valid and legally defensible, and using this information to make
sound hiring decisions. All three authors are active practitioners
and recommendations based on their experiences are interwoven
throughout the chapters. The authors are also grounded in a
scientific, conceptual perspective that informs what they say and
do in the staffing area. They review cutting-edge theory and
research in diverse areas of importance to the practice of
staffing, and identify scientific advances as well as areas that
should be informed by additional research.
Examples of such cutting-edge issues include:
*multilevel staffing models linking individual, group, and
organizational levels;
*comprehensive consideration of diversity and cross-cultural
challenges;
*the opportunities and challenges of the use of information
technology in staffing;
*the legal, professional, and ethical challenges facing staffing
practitioners;
*modern statistical approaches (e.g., structural equation modeling,
item response theory, hierarchical linear modeling); and
*integrated models of staffing predictors and frameworks for
understanding predictor and criterion spaces.
Each chapter contains real-world examples and illustrations, a
discussion of bestpractices, practical recommendations, and
directions for future research. In doing so, "Staffing
Organizations: Contemporary Practice and Theory" is a modern
version of a genuine classic.
