9780787908089: Human Resources Management for Public and Nonprofit Organizations

Synopsis

While there are many textbooks in personnel management, to date there have been none devoted to the nonprofit sector. Further, no book has addressed the use of strategic human resources management-the integration of human resources management with the strategic mission of the organization-in both public and nonprofit agencies. This groundbreaking work is the first to do both. Joan E. Pynes, a respected authority in public administration, demonstrates how strategic human resources management is essential to proactively managing change in an environment of tighter budgets, competition from private organizations, the need to maintain and train a more diverse workforce, and job obsolescence brought about by shifts in technology. She offers students and practitioners the guidance and techniques necessary to implement effective human resources management strategies in public and nonprofit organizations - from job analysis to performance evaluation, from recruitment and selection to training and development, from compensation and benefits to collective bargaining. Pynes also covers important but neglected topics such as recruiting and managing volunteers, working with a board of directors, and federal and state labor relations. Human Resources Management for Public and Nonprofit Organizations is an important resource for all involved in shaping, implementing, or studying human resources policies.

Quatrième de couverture

Strategic human resource management that meets the challenges of today′s government and nonprofit organizations. Strategic human resource management integrates HR practices with the mission of the organization. The issues public and nonprofit organizations face today tighter budgets, the privatization of many previously "public" services, job obsolescence caused by new technologies, and increasingly diverse workforces make the strategic management of human resources more crucial than ever. Unique in its focus on both public and nonprofit agencies and in its comprehensive coverage of the most current human resource concerns, this is an important manual for all involved with shaping, implementing, or studying human resource management policies.
