Описание: Corporations are aiming to grow their businesses in both the traditional developed countries along with the emerging economies (like China, India, Vietnam, Iran, etc.). A wide range of factors within the emerging markets in particular is having a significant impact on talent management. Emerging markets are countries undergoing rapid economic growth and industrialisation. AS developing and transition economies have emerged as significant outward investors, and the growth rate of the number of MNEs from developing countries and transition economies over the past 15 years has exceeded that of MNEs from developed countries. The growing importance of emerging economies has led to an upsurge of strategy research on the topic; however, research on human resource management (HRM) has not kept pace with the research on MNCs from emerging economies. Corporations from emerging markets have become strong competitors and have changed the competitive landscape in the international business field but still need to have more developed managerial practices. The capacity of the firm to attract, retain, and develop human capital is dominant to its ability to generate sustained competitive advantage. Inclusively, attitude towards HRM strategies and practices differs from country to country in emerging market context, while findings on HRM in emerging market firms show that at different levels HRM challenges in all of these countries are heavily influenced by cultural, organisational, institutional, industrial and individual factors. This issue aims to provide a scope for comparative studies which consider how HRM operates in different national contexts, especially in emerging market firms. Handbook of Human Resource Management in Emerging Markets addresses thematic topics of rapid growth, diversity, complexity and volatility in emerging market environments globally. How human resource policies and practices influence organisational innovation at emerging-market firms is an area of scarce research. Emerging market economies are growing an impressive two to three times faster than their developed counterparts. However there are many unique challenges in not only expanding business in these countries, but also building a high-performing organisation that is essential to support this growth. This unique Handbook is envisioned to students, researchers and policymakers involved in international and comparative HRM, employment relations and business.

Описание: The importance of human resources has received much attention in recent years. At a macro level, endogenous growth theories suggest that the accumulation of human capital constitutes the main engine of macro-economic growth. At a micro level, resource-based theory points to the human capital of employees as a major source for sustained competitive advantage for individual firms. As a result of the increasing importance of human capital, which to a large extent is related to developments in information and communication technologies. During the last decade, the focus of HRM research has shifted from conceptual studies about the nature of HRM to studies that examine the impact of HRM on organisational performance. In this context, human resources are the most important asset of statistical offices. Appropriate and skilled human resources are essential to ensure the production of high quality statistics and to implement more efficient and effective production processes based on new technologies. Proactive human resources management is essential to achieve the abovementioned change and to allow firms to meet the challenges today and in future. Early approach to research in industrial and organisational (I/O) psychology was oriented towards quantitative techniques as a result of influences from the social sciences. As the focus of I/O psychology expands from psychological test development to other personnel functions, there has been an inclusion of qualitative methods in I/O psychology practice. The present compilation, Handbook of Research Methods in Human Resource Management, therefore examines how qualitative methods like observation, interviews, ethnography, focus group discussion, nominal group technique, Delphi method, and projective techniques can be used in human resources studies. It is believed that knowledge gained on the applications of these qualitative methods would enhance understanding of workers behaviours in organisations and facilitate management decisions. Empirical studies are also presented, on how these qualitative methods have successfully been used in organisations. This handbook is intended to provide a practical information to managers and policy makers, to enable them to recognise and initiate measures that will make the workplace experience a more pleasant one for workers, and so weaken employees intent to leave.

Описание: Human resource development has become an essential component the development process. This is due to the fact that any development process is driven by the human factor. When the field of management science and organisational behaviour was in its beginning, the HRD function was envisaged as a department whose sole role was to look after payroll and wage negotiation. This was in the era of the assembly line and manufacturing where the HRD functions purpose was to check the attendance of the employees, process their pay and benefits and act as a mediator in disputes between the management and the workers. Concomitant with the rise of the services sector and the proliferation of technology and financial services companies, the role of the HRD function changed correspondingly. Today an increasing attention is being focused on the role of employee development through effective training thereby actualizing social and economic advancement of the nation. An HRM strategy pertains to the way as to the way to enforce the particular capabilities of HRM. An organisations HR function may also own recruitment and selection regulations, disciplinary processes, reward/popularity regulations, an HR plan, or mastering and development guidelines, but all of these practical areas of HRM want to be aligned and correlated, so as to correspond with the overall business method. An HRM method for this reason is an overall plan, concerning the implementation of unique HRM practical areas. The business sector is often overlooked in human resource development researches, despite representing a large portion of the total economy. Development plans remain mostly unwritten, which can lead to the impression that development is not being implemented or planned and is therefore not valid. This book discovers conceptual issues, qualitative research methods, quantitative research methods and methodological challenges. It employs the number of research experiences of leading HRD researchers to provide a range of insights highlighting what works, what does not work and associated challenges.

Описание:

As an increasing number of individuals go to work in the nonprofit sector, nonprofit managers need support on how best to build their human resource management capacity. They need to know what systems to examine, what questions to ask, and how to ensure they are managing people in a legal manner and as effectively as possible given their particular resource constraints. Important questions include: Do we have a clear philosophy, one that aligns with our nonprofit mission and values and allows us to treat our employees as the professionals they are? How do we select, develop, and retain the best people who will produce high value, high performance work, and how do we do so with limited resources? How do we effectively manage our mix of volunteers and paid staff? What do we need to consider to ensure diverse people work together in a harmonious fashion? With all-new chapters written by the top scholars in the field of nonprofit HRM, these are but a few of the many questions that are addressed in this timely volume.
