Features: Human Resource Management, written by Gary Dessler, a renowned professor of management at the University of Florida, has been widely recognized and praised in the field of American and international management education since its publication in 1978. The book has consistently ranked among the top sellers on the global bestseller list of Prentice Hall, one of the world's largest educational publishers. This Human Resource Management (6th Edition), co-published by China Renmin University Press and Prentice Hall, is Professor Dessler's newest and most significantly revised version. The greatest difference between this book and other similar textbooks lies in its fundamental philosophy of "People First," innovatively organized around the following two themes: (1) Human resource management is the responsibility of every manager, not just the HR department; all managers need a solid foundation in HR concepts and skills. (2) Winning employees' commitment is the cornerstone of successful human resource management, and every aspect of HR practice in the organization contributes to fostering employee commitment. The main content of this book includes: employee recruitment and placement; training and development; compensation and benefits; labor relations; employee security and workplace safety. Additionally, the book provides extensive and in-depth discussions on the application of computers in human resource management, the globalization of HRM, and the management of human resources in small and medium-sized enterprises. To emphasize the practicality of the book, each chapter is supported by relevant case studies based on real-world examples, and a comprehensive case study is woven throughout the chapters to provide readers with a holistic understanding of the entire scope of corporate human resource management. This book is distinguished by its original and innovative perspectives, rich and detailed content, and relevant and credible examples, making it suitable for students of management disciplines, MBA candidates, and business managers for training and self-study.
