Publisher's Notes
In many companies, the human resource component of a line manager/supervisor position is at least 50 percent of total responsibilities. But managers and supervisors often find themselves overwhelmed by ? or even ill-prepared for ? the responsibility of having to select, train, evaluate, discipline, and reward their direct reports. Written especially for the emerging manager, Frontline HR provides an excellent guide to successfully navigate through the challenges of supervising employees.

The Hr Value Proposition
by Dave Ulrich
HR's leading thinkers provide a blueprint for the future The international bestseller Human Resource Champions helped set the HR agenda for the 1990s and enabled HR professionals to become strategic partners in their organizations. But earning a seat at the executive table was only the beginning. Today's HR leaders must also bring substantial value to that table. Drawing on their sixteen-year study of over 29,000 HR professionals and line managers, leading HR experts Dave Ulrich and Wayne Brockbank propose The HR Value Proposition . The authors argue that HR value creation requires a deep understanding of external business realities and how value is defined by key stakeholders both inside and outside the company. They provide practical tools and worksheets for leveraging this knowledge to create HR practices, build organizational capabilities, design HR strategy, and marshal resources that create value for customers, investors, executives, and employees. Written by the field's premier trailblazers, this book charts the path HR professionals must take to help lead their organizations into the future. Dave Ulrich is a professor at the University of Michigan School of Business and the author of twelve books and more than a hundred articles on the subject of human resources. Wayne Brockbank is a clinical professor of business at the University of Michigan School of Business, the author of award-winning papers on HR strategy, and an adviser to top global organizations.

Now more than ever, HR needs to position itself as a value-added partner that contributes to the strategic goals of its organization.
Human Resource Management
by Fisher
This authoritative text appeals to upper-level students, practicing managers, and HRM professionals who require a thorough grasp of the field's essential functional areas as well as emerging trends. Drawing on their extensive experience teaching abroad, the authors introduce international issues in the first chapter and provide ongoing discussion throughout the text. Instructors can discuss and revisit strategic HRM, ethics, utility (cost/benefit analysis), plus productivity and quality at any point. Chapter 16, Employment Transitions, focuses on retaining valuable employees during strong economic periods and reducing the workforce during difficult periods—plus internal transitions. Updated cases and boxed inserts cover a range of subjects, including test-taker rights, the pitfalls of measurement tools, performance appraisal and merit pay in China, and HRM approaches to improving a competitive advantage.
Strategic Human Resources
by David M. Kreps
Human Resources are the most important resource that a firm commands and should be regarded as capital, a factor of production in which managers invest today in order to realize future profits. This book deals with the strategic implications of Human Resource Management as an important strategic asset and emphasizes its importance within the overall strategy of the firm. The book covers issues such as job design, evaluation, recruitment, training, career concern, and outsourcing and downsizing. The linkage between the various pieces of HRM policy are stressed and how the policies are related to management issues such as TQM, just-in-time manufacturing, and others. The book is aimed at the general manager, not the HRM practitioner and it stresses conceptual frameworks, not procedural methodology.
