But what is Sustainable Human Resource Management? How does it differ from HRM, and what makes it a truly new way of looking at the management of people and organisations? Alongside a theoretical introduction to the concept, this book includes numerous concrete cases and a practical tool to help you develop a SHRM strategy: the Sustainable HRM Cockpit.
This book is primarily written for HRM professionals who want to implement SHRM in their organisation, or who want to evaluate and improve their practice of it. Additionally, academics, students, and those interested in HRM measurements are sure to benefit from this exceptional introduction to Sustainable HRM.
