Steen/Noe Fifth Canadian Edition has been written to make HR more accessible to students, more reflective of their situation, and more about them. Today, every manager is "in HR", and every employee is actively engaged in the process of HRM, regardless of whether they aspire to be a manager or an HR professional. Students will experience HRM every day of their working lives, from how they are perceived by recruiters to completing a performance appraisal, to being promoted or fired. When students ask "What's In It For Me?", the Fifth Canadian Edition will show them just how relevant HRM is to them as people, employees and eventually managers. This easy to read and relevant 11 chapter human resource management text is ideal for a one-semester course. Steen/Noe balances theory with practical application and rich examples that support the need for foundational HRM, thought leadership and applied insight necessary to perform and thrive in organizations today.
