HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT, also known as HRM or simply HR, is the process of hiring and developing employees so that they become valuable members of the employer's organization. Any company, large or small, depends upon its employees for success. Human resources managers are the people in charge of ensuring that the right employees are recruited, hired, and trained. HR managers also serve as a vital link between an organization's management and its employees, often consulting with top executives on strategic planning. The responsibilities of human resources managers fall into three major areas: staffing, employee compensation and benefits, and defining work. Their main job is to coordinate an organization's workforce, from planning personnel needs to hiring and firing. Depending on the size of the organization, they may also establish workplace policies, serve as the go-to person for questions about benefits, settle disputes among staff, evaluate worker performance, negotiate contracts, handle employee relations, develop training programs, and oversee other human resources staff. In essence, the purpose of all of these tasks is the same: to maximize the success of an organization by optimizing the effectiveness of its employees. Many human resources positions require at least a bachelor's degree. A master's degree may be needed to secure a position as a specialist or to advance to a higher-level management position. It is also possible to get started with no college at all. Some entry-level jobs require only a high school diploma and a willingness to take on administrative duties as an assistant. There is no single pathway to a career in human resources. Indeed, HR professionals come from a variety of backgrounds. Some have worked their way up the corporate ladder from clerical positions into management. Others set out to become HR managers and launch their careers directly from college. Some have transitioned into HR from other fields, such as finance, law, or technology. One of the best aspects of this career is the wide variety of work settings. Wherever there are employees, there are HR professionals. That includes every industry, plus government agencies and nonprofit organizations. Wherever you choose to work, you can be sure that human resources management is a highly valued position. Business leaders understand that there is a higher risk of failure without a good HR manager to help attract and retain the best employees possible. In fact, HR managers are usually considered at the same level as executive officers, and are often included in major corporate decisions. HR professionals agree that this is very satisfying work. The pay is good, but that is just the beginning. The job market is growing, working conditions are excellent, and layoffs are nearly unheard of. Best of all, there is no stress. The work is interesting, challenging, and rewarding. Human resources is a good choice for a person who wants to help people be more productive and fulfilled during their time spent in the workplace. If you want the chance to lead and, are eager to take on management responsibilities, take a closer look at this career.

This book was written to address the need for timely, thorough, practical, and defensible job analysis for HR managers. Under continuing development over the past 50 years, Functional Job Analysis (FJA) is acknowledged by major texts in HR and industrial/organizational psychology as one of the premier methods of job analysis used by leading-edge organizations in the private and public sectors. It is unique among job analysis methods in having its own in-depth theoretical grounding within a systems framework. In addition to providing a methodology for analyzing jobs, it offers a rich model and vocabulary for communicating about the competencies (skills) contributing to work success and about the design of the work organization through which those competencies are expressed. FJA is the right theory and methodology for future work in an increasingly competitive global economy. This book is the authoritative source describing how FJA can encourage and support an ongoing dialogue between workers and management as they jointly pursue total quality, worker growth, and organization performance. It is a flexible tool, fully recognizing the rapid changes impacting today's organizations. It is a comprehensive tool, leading to an in-depth understanding of work, its results, and its improvement in a unique organization context. It is a humane tool, viewing workers in light of their full potential and capacity for positive growth. With FJA, workers and managers can work more constructively together in a wholesome and productive work relationship.

Career Development: A Human Resource Development Perspective offers a strategic framework that demonstrates the role of career development within the human resource function. It goes beyond conventional interventions and includes key topics such as diversity, work–life balance, and ethics. Historically, the career development literature has been viewed either from the perspective of the individual (how to build a career) or from an economic perspective (how an organization benefits from developing employees). In this book, McDonald and Hite bring together the strengths of both traditions, offering an integrated framework for career development. The theoretical foundation expands on the counseling literature by incorporating the literature from human resource development and related fields. The application section reflects on the wide range of ages and working options that characterize the current and future workplace. The final section of the book addresses career development issues such as managing a diverse, global workforce; ethics; and work–life balance. This book will help prepare human resource development students, scholars, and practitioners to develop and maintain successful career development programs, and to foster more innovative research that advances the discourse.

In eBOYS, Randall Stross takes us behind the scenes and inside the heads of the gutsy entrepreneurs who are financing the hottest businesses on the Web. The six tall men who started Benchmark, Silicon Valley's most exciting venture capital firm, put themselves at the cutting edge of the new economy by backing billion dollar start-ups like eBay and Webvan. The risks were enormous--but the rewards have proven to be staggering. Within two years, eBay's net worth grew from $20 million to more than $21 billion, while each Benchmark founding partner saw his own personal net worth soar by hundreds of millions of dollars. For two roller-coaster years, Stross had total access not only to Benchmark's executives but to the companies they financed. He was a fly on the wall as fortunes were made in an instant, snap decisions got locked in, and new ventures took off--and sometimes crashed. Here are the testosterone-pumped conversations, round-the-clock meetings, and gutsy deals that launched the eBoys and their clients into the stratosphere of mega-wealth. Written like a novel but absolutely true, eBOYS brings to vivid life the glory days of the greatest business adventure of our time.
