Abstract
This introductory human resource management (HRM) textbook
provides students with an overview of the major domains of
human resource management (the “how-to”) with a focus on
the practical application of the most recent HRM research and
best practices. Students will learn to understand, anticipate, and
respond to how power, profit, and intersectionality shape the
practice of HRM. Moving beyond the typical procedure-oriented
textbook, Barnetson and Foster provide thought-provoking
political analysis to better prepare students for the real-world
practice of human resource management.
