About this book

Personnel Management is the ideal text for students on a wide range of professional and business courses and will also assist the newly appointed practitioner in developing the skills necessary to manage people effectively at work whilst encouraging the more experienced manager to question and challenge established practices. Fully updated, the third edition explains the difference between Personnel Management and Human Resource Management and covers the advent of the competency movement with its emphasis on training and NVQs. The student-centred approach, with numerous useful exercises to facilitate understanding is a continuing feature of this popular text.
