Description: Human Resource Management - 8th edition. Milkovich/Boudreau is now in its eighth edition, the longest- and largest selling Human Resource Management text on Irwin's list. The heart of this book remains the authors' belief that what sets successful organizations apart is how they manage human resources. Their book is differentiated by its continuing focus on "so what?" So what is the impact and relevance of Human Resource programs, scholarly research, and academic theories on achieving competitive advantage and fair treatment for employees? The text is further differentiated by its diagnostic approach, which guides managers' decisions. Using the diagnostic model, students assess relevant conditions, set objectives, make decisions, and evaluate their impact. Another differentiating feature is that the book is full of examples drawn from the authors' extensive hands-on consulting experience with leading companies worldwide. Features Diagnostic Model organizes the text. The design of the book is largely based on four basic phases of the diagnostic model of human resource management. The major sections in the book examine these phases and discuss the major human resource issues involved. International issues and examples woven into every chapter. No other Human Resource Management text includes international similarities and differences to this extent. Both authors are well-known for their international expertise, having conducted research and exchanged views with Human Resource managers in Australia, central and western Europe, Asia, and Latin America. "Your Turn" exercises. Short, real-life human resource problems found at the end of each chapter, the Your Turn exercises provide an opportunity for students to develop their decision-making skills.
