{"product_id":"business-driven-hrm-isbn-9780470844335","title":"Business Driven HRM","description":"Strategy is all very well, but forget the human side of the business and your plans are destined for failure. Yet human resource management (HRM) has traditionally focused on  administrative functions such as recruiting, disciplining, and rewarding  employees. This book draws on practical experience and extensive  research to offer a framework that shows how HRM can link to  corporate vision, values, strategies and policies, both in a reactive and  proactive way. It includes various case studies of HRM to illustrate how  the model may be modified and applied in practice. In addition, the author  pays special attention to the management of organisational change, and covers  current trends to ensure that HRM adds value throughout the organisation. Rich in examples and practical advice, this book will help transform HRM into a major force in organisational success.

Human Resource Management (HRM) plays a critical role in the strategic processes of an organisation. All too often though, the strategic plans of a company fall down because insufficient attention has been given to the implementation phase, of which HR policies are a critical part. Strategy is all very well, but forget the human side of the business, and your plans are destined for failure.  \u003cp\u003eThe approach of this book is to make HRM practices successful by becoming business-driven concerns. The real trick lies in making this concept practically applicable. The author makes use of case studies illustrating good and bad HRM practices, step-by-step approaches and checklists to ensure that organisations can successfully adopt business-driven HRM. A few common myths are also exploded along the way (see introduction).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e This book will help HRM be transformed into a major force in organisational success. It should be read not just by HR professionals, but also senior executives and company leaders, as well as consultants, trainers and business advisers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47988870938853,"sku":"NP9780470844335","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780470844335.jpg?v=1761781856","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/business-driven-hrm-isbn-9780470844335","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
