STRATEGIC HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT 5E offers a truly innovative, integrative framework that examines the traditional functional HR areas from a strategic perspective. This text is organized into two sections. The first section, Chapters 1-7, examines the context of strategic HR and develops a framework and conceptual model for the practice of strategic HR. The second section, Chapters 8-14, examines the actual practice and implementation of strategic HR through a discussion of strategic issues that need to be addressed while developing specific programs and policies related to the traditional functional areas of HR. Both the integrative framework that requires linkage between and consistency among these functional HR activities and the approach toward writing about these traditional functional areas from a strategic perspective distinguish the text from what is currently on the market.

  • An opening “in practice” vignette featuring a well-known organization to introduce the chapter topic as well as numerous additional vignettes within each chapter that illustrate pertinent chapter concepts
  • Carefully selected readings that are integrated within the text discussion
  • End-of-chapter discussion questions and exercises designed to apply chapter content and facilitate discussion of issues.
  • Also available are an Instructor’s Manual and PowerPoint slides to accompany the book which were prepared by the author. They can be accessed by visiting www.cengage.com/login. The Instructor’s Manual includes chapter outlines, answers to end-of-chapter content, and suggested topics for student papers, while the PowerPoint slides offer all main text concepts to encourage classroom discussion and classroom engagement.
