Human Resources Management Tools: Guidelines for Upgrading Your HRM-HRIS Capabilities

In the tradition of Peter Drucker, HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT TOOLS presents HRM philosophies & principles for Personnel professionals & their responsible managers & executives, as well as educators in this arena. Within this framework, the author provides detailed self-help guidelines for defining the information needed for responsive Human Resources Management programs, & for selecting & implementing the appropriate information tools. The primary tool is generally known as a human resources information system (HRIS). Secondary tools, to aid Personnel professionals in planning & day-to-day activities are decision support systems, computer-aided training, & "expert" systems. HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT TOOLS speaks primarily to HR professionals & their responsible managers & executives in any business, institution, or government agency large enough to have an identifiable Personnel function. It was designed to be useful within a range of environments--from relatively small organizations interested in beginning HRM programs to large organizations with on-going, but unfulfilled, HRM programs. Accordingly, HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT TOOLS has also oproved useful to educators & students in this field: as a reference for faculty, as a supplementary text for students, & as a textbook for courses in which computer-based information systems for HRM are of interest.Blair, Edward is the author of 'Human Resources Management Tools: Guidelines for Upgrading Your HRM-HRIS Capabilities', published 1988 under ISBN 9780961945404 and ISBN 0961945400.
