Opplysninger | "In his book Power Tools, John Nirenberg asks, "Why are so many well-intended students learning so much and yet able to apply so little in their personal and professional lives?" The world of business and human resource management (HRM) has changed, and so should how it is taught. Increasing numbers of students want more than lectures to gain an understanding of the concepts of HRM. They want their courses to be relevant and to apply what they learn, and they want to develop skills they can use in their everyday life and at work. It's not enough to learn about HRM; they want to learn how to be HR managers. This is why we wrote the book. After reviewing and using a variety of HRM books for more than a decade, we didn't find any that (1) could be easily read and understood by students and (2) effectively taught students how to be HR managers. We wrote this text out of our desire to prepare students to be successful HR managers and/or to use HRM skills as line managers or employees. As the subtitle states, this book not only presents the important HRM concepts and functions but also takes students to the next level by actually engaging them by teaching them to apply the concepts through critical thinking and to develop HRM skills they can use in their personal and professional lives. MARKET AND COURSE This book is for undergraduate- and graduate-level courses in human resource management (HRM), including personnel management. It is appropriate for a first course in an HRM major, as well as required and elective courses found in business schools. This textbook is also appropriate for HRM courses taught in other disciplines, such as education and psychology, particularly industrial psychology and organizational psychology, and can be utilized for training courses in supervision. The level of the text assumes no prior background in business or HRM. This book is an excellent choice for online and hybrid courses in HRM"--
