Managing Human Resources provides a comprehensive overview of the functions,
systems, and responsibilities related to human resources. The authors have two main
purposes in writing this book, which they state in the preface: to equip students with
the tools and practices needed to be a successful human resource professional, along
with an appreciation for the change they can effect, and to present the most current
challenges and opportunities that graduating students will face when they enter the
work environment. The product recognizes the value of the HR professional in
developing and implementing strategy, ultimately supporting the success of their
employees as well as the entire organization.
