The SAGE Handbook of Human Resource Management 2nd Edition – eBook

Description

The SAGE Handbook of Human Resource Management, 2nd Edition provides a comprehensive and internationally focused overview of the theory, research, and practice of modern human resource management (HRM). Building on the success of the first edition, this fully updated and expanded Handbook brings together contributions from leading international scholars to examine both the foundations of HRM and emerging issues shaping the field.

The book introduces readers to the fundamentals of applied human resource management while placing HR practices within their broader theoretical, organizational, and international contexts. Rather than focusing solely on practical techniques, the Handbook encourages students and researchers to consider the theories, debates, and research evidence that underpin contemporary HRM.

The second edition expands coverage of important emerging areas including talent management, employee engagement, e-HRM, and big data, reflecting the increasing influence of technology, analytics, and changing workforce expectations on HR practices.

Content is organized into three major sections: Context of Human Resource Management, Fundamentals of Human Resource Management, and Contemporary Issues. Internationally minded chapters provide critical overviews of important topics while exploring key academic debates and current research.

With contributions from leading scholars and extensive coverage of established and emerging HRM topics, The SAGE Handbook of Human Resource Management, 2nd Edition is an invaluable reference for advanced students, researchers, academics, and professionals seeking a deeper understanding of contemporary human resource management.
