Product Description

How is human resource management (HRM) strategic to a firm's viability and how might it help to lay a basis for sustained competitive advantage? How can managers pursue their goals for labour productivity and organisational flexibility in socially acceptable ways? This book explores such questions. The authors develop a conceptual framework to provide an exploration of the growing field of strategic HRM. This text should be of interest to MBA students and advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students of HRM. It should also be an valuable resource for anyone interested in the role of HRM in business success.

4.0 out of 5 stars A comprehensive guide to the changing face of HRM, 11 Jan 2003

By A Customer

John Purcell is highly regarded in his field, is the editor of HRM journal, and he uses this text as the core text for his teachings on the Bath MBA course. The text is not always easily read, but this is probably as much to do with his attempts to distill concepts succinctly rather than treat the reader as a undergraduate or a first time student. In content the book covers all aspects of Strategic HRM,and is probably best used as a quality update for line-managers through to CEOs on where HRM is going, rather than a handbook for HR practitioners. They would probably prefer a more detailed and painstaking analysis of the new world of HRM.
