Specific, real-life examples of human resources management in health care organizations are offered. Chapters cover organizational systems, strategy and people, structural systems (including information systems), behavioral systems (including corporate culture, organizational change, and transformational leadership), and management systems (including recruitment, placement, training, performance appraisal, compensation, and labor relations).
