Strategic Human Resource Management

Mello's STRATEGIC HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT, 6th EDITION, offers a truly innovative and integrative framework that examines the traditional functional HR areas from a strategic perspective. The first section, Chapters 1-7, examines the context of strategic HR and develops a framework and conceptual model for the practice of strategic HR. The second section, Chapters 8-14, examines the actual practice and implementation of strategic HR through a discussion of strategic issues that need to be addressed while developing specific programs and policies related to the traditional functional areas of HR. Both the integrative framework that requires linkage between and consistency among these functional HR activities and the approach toward writing about these traditional functional areas from a strategic perspective distinguish the text from what is currently on the market.
