Autor Alex Vanderstraeten
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 sep 2018
This advanced level core textbook examines the role that HRM and HR managers play in developing processes and practices for high-performance organisations. It is built around a unique conceptual framework that provides a clear and coherent structure for the book. Underpinned by recent research in the field and the author's academic expertise, the book provides an historical overview of the development of strategic HRM as a field of study before bringing the discussion up to date by examining contemporary topics such as sustainable HRM, e-HRM and high-performance work systems. The book extends the focus beyond the firm to include discussions about the role of multiple stakeholders, such as trade unions and governments, to encourage a deeper understanding of the role of national, institutional and cultural issues, as well as other external influences.This is an essential text for postgraduate and MBA students studying modules on Strategic HRM, Advanced HRM, or HRM and Performance Management. It is also an ideal companion for final-year undergraduate modules on specialist HRM degree programmes.

Recenzii

This interesting text covers important issues in HRM and demonstrates how HRM connects with wider management. The chapters will give students not only a good understanding of HRM but also help them to understand how they relate to other areas of management and management practices.
This insightful textbook is written around the four key dimensions of HRM: strategic, organizational, instrumental, and people. It provides a clear overarching framework for the different roles and functions that HRM and HRD specialists, line managers and all other stakeholders deal with in the workplace. A 'must have' book that is illustrated with real-life examples and review questions that prepare students for future challenges in the field of HRM.
[This textbook is] well written, offering a comprehensive and detailed discussion about the four major roles or dimensions that HR managers and departments can play to add value to their organization. [It is] perfect for students who are completing a master's degree in HRM. It is not often that a substantive book such as this is produced.
