Experiencing Human Resource Management By Dr Christopher Mabey, Dr Denise Skinner, Professor Timothy A R Clark * Publisher: Sage Publications Ltd * Number Of Pages: 272 * Publication Date: 1998-03-23 * ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0761951172 * ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780761951179 Product Description: By examining human resource management (HRM) techniques and processes from the `receiving end', Experiencing Human Resource Management provides a rich and valuable view of HRM initiatives and strategies. If HRM is to contribute to the objectives of the organization, it is imperative to understand how HRM techniques are being applied and experienced. This book tells the experiences of employees in more than 20 organizations across a number of sectors and countries. It sets out to answer three questions: A decade or so from its arrival, is HRM delivering its promises? Of the many documented changes in workplace policies and practices, which can be distinctively attributed to HRM? Where changes are occurring in the name of HRM, who is benefitting? Presenting not the usual managerial focus, but a rich and valuable view from employees, Experiencing Human Resource Managment will be of great value to academics and advanced level students in human resource management, industrial relations and sociology, as well as to practitioners dealing with employment related issues. Review `The case studies in this book are wide and varied, and together comprise a fascinating picture of HRM in practice. There is a need to understand HRM techniques as they have been and are being applied... these essays will help that process of understanding' - John Monks (from the Preface) `This book offers some interesting and challenging thoughts on the effectiveness of HRM...an interesting introduction to HRM students hoping to aquire knowledge' - International Journal of Selection and Assessment `For many teaching and researching HRM and associated subjects this will be a valuable and timely book. The collection of case studies that form its core will act as a valuable resource and counterweight to much managerialist literature in the area' - Management Learning
