This book covers all of the core Human Resource Management topics, while focusing on strategic decision making and managerial problem solving. The managerial problem solving is acheived through numerous “You Manage It” activities and two critical thinking cases per chapter. The text has an international focus and high quality cases that can be used in more rigorous classroom situations.
