Strategic HRM

This part of Human Resource Management discusses the basis, preparation and implementation of strategic HRM. Human resource management is closely identified with business strategy by many authors. In fact, HRM is typically distinguished from traditional personnel management by its concern with meeting business objectives in a strategic fashion.

The chapters in Part 4 address a number of specific issues:

* What is strategy?

* What is the role of HRM in the strategic process?

* How are human resource strategies prepared and implemented?

* What is the relationship between strategic HRM and human resource planning?

* How does HRM impact on the process of organizational change?

* What is the role of HR practitioners in mergers and acquisitions?

* How can behavioural change be achieved?

* What strategies are available for recruitment and retention?

* How are resourcing strategies prepared?
