Book description
Human resources management is critical to the success of any
organization, particularly in today's complex business environment.
More and more often, managers and business owners, in addition to HR
personnel, are charged with aspects of human resources management:
recruitment, training and development, job analysis, corporate
restructuring, compensation, and morale, to name a few. Lack of
expertise can result in the loss of key staff, diminished productivity
and profitability, or a lawsuit. Streetwise Human Resources
Management shows how to balance the needs of your employees with
the objectives of your business.
