Beginning with a full exploration what HRM is and how it has developed students are given a good foundation with which to move on to part two which explores the practicalities of managing the employee relationship, sections on managing performance and managing reward offer good theoretical underpinning and are offered with a positive approach to both of these important aspects of the HRM role. The final section which looks at contemporary issues facing HRM and is extremely pertinent as it explores the challenges which face Human Resources in these stringent economic times'

- 8***r (7)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI was searching for this book for a while and was appalled at the cost. I came across this seller and I was happy with the price from the seller. The seller messaged to let me know that this was the global version before it was actually shipped. That, I appreciated so much. My book arrived in perfect condition, looks great. The packaging was secure and the book, brand new. This is of great quality both in the service and the book. I will definitely use this seller again. Excellent!
- l***u (9)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseItem came exactly as describe. I really appreciate the time and caution the seller took to package this book. There was no way it could've received any water damage delivery because it was so well wrapped. The book came sooner than the expected date. At one point I even received a later date and that made me concerned because I thought it wouldn't come in time. But it did, very early as well. I recommend this seller 100% and would purchase from seller in the future if needed. Thank you so much!!The Science Of Psychology: An Appreciative View 6th Global Edition (#186630729832)
