Human Resource Management: Challenges and Future Directions presents a collection of invited essays exploring aspects of human resource and people management that pose particular challenges to managers today. The pressing issues, controversies and trends surrounding contemporary themes in human resource management are examined, and the implications for organisations, managers and their employees are discussed.

Featuring the work of many of the best-known researchers in human resource management in Australia and New Zealand, these readings provide alternative views and up-to-date commentary to support undergraduate and postgraduate studies in HRM.

Human Resource Management features a broader range of topics, a richer diversity of perspectives and a keener critical edge than is possible in a traditional textbook. The result is a stimulating and indispensable adjunct to current management texts.

FEATURES

• Contributions from 34 of the best-known names in New Zealand and Australian Human Resource Management



• Sections cover a variety of topics ranging from e-cruitment and knowledge management to the ageing workforce and globalisation.
