Where Are We Now…. We begin with Chapter 1 Introduction to Human Resource Management
The purpose of this chapter explains what Human Resource Management is and why it’s important to all managers. We’ll see that human resource management activities such as hiring, training, appraising, compensating, and developing employees are part of every manager’s job. We’ll see that human resource management is also a separate function. The main topics we’ll cover will include what human resource management is, the trends shaping human resource management, human resource management today, the new human resource manager, and the plan of the book.
More importantly, the human resource management concepts and techniques you’ll learn in this book can help ensure that you get results—through people. Remember that you can do everything else right as a manager—lay brilliant plans, draw clear organization charts, set up world-class assembly lines, and use sophisticated accounting controls—but still fail, by hiring the wrong people or by not motivating subordinates. On the other hand, many managers—presidents, generals, governors, supervisors—have been successful even with inadequate plans, organization, or controls. They were successful because they had the knack of hiring the right people for the right jobs and motivating, appraising, and developing them. Remember, as you read this book getting results is the bottom line of managing, and that, as a manager, you will have to get those results through people.
