Summary
Mastering Human Resource Management is suitable for courses usually called introduction to human resource management, principles of human resource management, human resource administration, HR fundamentals, or similar titles taught primarily in undergraduate departments of business administration at two- and four-year… colleges and universities. It may also be appropriate for use as a basic introduction at the master’s level. Mastering Human Resource Management prepares students to enter the rapidly evolving work environment. It provides them with the state-of-the-art knowledge and skills that are needed to successfully recruit, develop, and retain top-performing talent. This first edition is distinguished by a fresh and practical approach to contemporary work situations that other books do not fully address. Mastering Human Resource Management’s key themes of talent analytics and employee engagement, combined with its explicit alignment with the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) and Human Resource Certification Institute (HRCI) curriculum guidelines, support a contemporary and professional competency from day one. Plentiful skill-building exercises ensure learners understand how to implement best practices. Pertinent and reliable expert scholarship supports the realistic, nuanced, and challenging case studies that are found throughout the text, some of which are drawn from the author’s own private sector work experiences. The result is a distinctive blend of research and practice that ensures students understand when to apply the right HR strategies.
