Human Resource Management: People and Organisations provides thorough coverage of key HR topics and their context to enable students to excel in their academic studies and begin a successful career as a people professional.

Now fully updated for a third edition, Human Resource Management: People and Organisations covers everything from HR service and delivery and essential UK employment law through to resourcing and talent planning, employee engagement and reward management. There is also expert discussion on organisation design and development as well as advice on how to improve organisational performance. This edition also includes a brand new chapter on people management in an international context.

Fully supported by a range of pedagogical features including learning outcomes to summarise the content that will be covered in each chapter and track progress, reflective activities to consolidate learning and further reading suggestions to support wider engagement with areas of particular interest, this book is ideal reading for anyone studying the CIPD Level 5 Associate Diploma in People Management. Case studies throughout also help students understand how the theory applies in practice. Online resources include Powerpoint slides, a lecturer guide and annotated web links.
