3.0 out of 5 stars OK for training but a lot of American employment trivia, 14 Sep 2004

By	Big Corla (Mefein, Kerry, Ireland) - See all my reviews

The training methods illustrated in this book are formulated for the general human resource no matter what their age. These methods are highly motivational and safe for new recruits as well as older employees of any age. The techniques utilised provide a safe, humane method of teaching your employee basic obedience. Never consider your employee/human resource too young or too old to learn these exercises.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for manager, needs more depth to be useful for HR professionals, 17 April 2009

By	Layla (Dubai - UAE) - See all my reviews

This in excellent primer on all things HR for HR professionals as well as managers. The 10 chapters covers all the major areas of HR including selection; policies; performance management; training & development; employees relations; as well as compensation and benefits.

The chapters are Witten in a Q & A format: common questions relating to the chapter's topic are answered in a fairly straight-forward manner and with enough details. Most concepts are explained succinctly and clearly without boring the reader. I especially liked the fact that the questions deal with both conceptual and practical elements of each topic. For example, in the chapter on HR policies, one of the questions is "should our company have an employee handbook?" and the answer explains both the legal and practical need for the handbook. Another question focuses on the "stylistic considerations in writing the manual."

The only complaint I had with the book is in the depth of the material covered. In targeting both HR professionals and managers, the authors may have had, by necessity, to "tune-down" some of the content and therefore, as an HR professional this was a little too basic for me to be as useful as it could've been.
