Evolving Practices in Human Resource Management cover

Written for non-experts in jargon-free language, this work shows how to create systems within organizations that preempt the monetary, strategic, and emotional costs associated with on-the-job conflict. Its clear and simple approach translates advanced concepts into practical how-tos and provides readers with four guiding principles they can follow to create conflict control systems of their own. Amply illustrated with real-world examples, it details the policies, procedures, and practices that make for successful control systems and tells precisely how to implement them.

"The table of contents for Evolving Practices reads like a survival kit for HR executives. This book provides concrete advice on how to deal with the challenges facing senior HR executives. From recruitment to leadership development, it offers valuable and usable insights." (Donald J. Sacco, executive vice president of human resources, Bell Atlantic)

"A very well done overview of the important issues faced by human resource management today. I highly recommAnd it." (Ed Lawler, director, Center for Effective Organizations)
