10 cp
Prerequisites MGMT634 Management of Resources: People
Teaching Organisation 3 hours per week for twelve weeks or equivalent.

This unit takes a critical perspective of human resource management and examines the claims of the discipline that it makes a positive strategic contribution to the achievement of corporate objectives of an organisation. Every organisation faces challenges from continuous and discontinuous change and the contribution of HRM can be vital to organisational success. This unit explores differing theoretical/ideological perspectives of HRM. The content presented builds on previous generalist/functional HRM knowledge and practical skills gained from other HRM studies and experience. The unit will analyse organisational needs, pressures for change and ethical implications that are linked to these pressures.
