The Most Important Asset

The book provides examples of how important effective HRM can be in facilitating organizational success and demonstrates that without its workforce all of an organization’s other assets are inert and useless. These messages are communicated using real life scenarios, to make the situations realistic and to engage the reader in contemplating the lessons inherent in the experiences of the characters. The case examples occur in different contexts and illustrate how strategies work differently when they used in different environments, even within the same organization. It presents challenges and issues related to workforce management and then explores alternative strategies for dealing with them
