This unique book is based on thorough research which closely analyses recent changes and developments in the management of human resources. The author draws on over 300 indepth interviews with managers at all levels - including many active 'line' managers, which gives the survey a stong practical approach, rather than the conventional 'personnel' picture. Developments in the Management of Human Resources is particularly important as it:. * Is the first proper analysis of the part played by line and general manager in human resource management. * Uses real named cases throughout from both the private and public sectors. * Considers corporate culture and strategy, and focuses on their impact in industrial relations and human resource management.
