Editat de Jessica Word, Jessica Sowa
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 iun 2017
As an increasing number of individuals go to work in the nonprofit sector, nonprofit managers need support on how best to build their human resource management capacity. They need to know what systems to examine, what questions to ask, and how to ensure they are managing people in a legal manner and as effectively as possible given their particular resource constraints. Important questions include: Do we have a clear philosophy, one that aligns with our nonprofit mission and values and allows us to treat our employees as the professionals they are? How do we select, develop, and retain the best people who will produce high value, high performance work, and how do we do so with limited resources? How do we effectively manage our mix of volunteers and paid staff? What do we need to consider to ensure diverse people work together in a harmonious fashion? With all-new chapters written by the top scholars in the field of nonprofit HRM, these are but a few of the many questions that are addressed in this timely volume.
These scholars delve into their particular areas of expertise, offering a comprehensive look at theories and trends; legal and ethical issues; how to build HRM from recruitment, management, labor relations, to training and appraisal; as well as topics in diversity, technology, and paid versus volunteer workforce management. This essential handbook offers all core topic coverage as well as countless insider insights, additional resource lists, and tool sets for practical application. With chapters grounded in existing research, but also connecting research to practice for those in the field, The Nonprofit Human Resource Management Handbook will be required reading for a generation of scholars, students, and practitioners of nonprofit human resource management.

Recenzii

"If I were to make a list of scholars who we should hire to assemble current thinking on human resource management in the nonprofit sector, Sowa and Word would be at the top of my list. They have organized an impressive panoply of nonprofit sector scholars who represent our best current thinking on strategic human resource management." – Mark Hager, Arizona State University, USA
"Comprehensive in scope, Sowa and Word cover critical topics ranging from how to attract the best and brightest employees and volunteers into the sector, to managing and cultivating diversity, to applications of technology in human resource management, and everything in between. This book serves as a valuable resource that I look forward to sharing with my students undertaking careers in the nonprofit sector." – Kelly LaRoux, The University of Chicago at Illinois, USA
"The Nonprofit Human Resource Management Handbook is an excellent confluence of the state-of-art research on human resources in nonprofit organizations and the practical matters confronting nonprofit managers seeking to effectively deploy their human capital. Sowa and Word and their outstanding colleagues have compiled an accessible, yet rigorous, resource that benefits both scholars and practitioners by highlighting critical issues that nonprofit organizations must successfully navigate to recruit and retain talented workers in the current environment. This will certainly be a much-used textbook in nonprofit management courses. I wish I would have had this book when I was a student!" – Rebecca Nesbit, University of Georgia, USA
