The HR function is increasingly an outward-facing profession, requiring strategies to manage contextual forces and influences. HR in Business Contexts shows students how to apply these in practice.
This new textbook covers classic and emerging theory and developments around HR experiences, identities and strategies. With chapters on the managerial and legal contexts of HRM, technological considerations and ethical dimensions that the people profession needs to be aware of, it provides evidence-based commentaries and critical reflections on how HR engages with such contexts.
Featuring real-world examples from Ryanair, Google, Oxfam and Dishoom, HR in Business Contexts demonstrates how strategies and models work in international organizations and environments. It is supported by features such as learning outcomes, discussion questions and experiential activities involving action and reflection. Online resources include lecturer slides, further discussion questions and additional case studies.
This is an essential textbook for postgraduate students of HRM, taking modules on Human Resource Management in Context.
