Study Background

People are our most valuable asset is a clichÐ"© which no member of any senior management team would disagree with. Yet, the reality for many organizations is that their people remain under valued, under trained, under utilized, poorly motivated, and consequently perform well below their true capability. The role of HRM hence is to bridge these gaps existing in any organization.

Human resource management (HRM) is the strategic and coherent approach to the management of an organization's most valued assets - the people working there who individually and collectively contribute to the achievement of the objectives of the business. The terms "human resource management" and "human resources" (HR) have largely replaced the term "personnel management" as a description of the processes involved in managing people in organizations. Human resource (or personnel) management is getting things done through people. It's an essential part of every manager's responsibilities, but many organizations find it advantageous to establish a specialist division to provide an expert service dedicated to ensuring that the human resource function is performed efficiently. And for this one of the major functions of HRM stands the process of recruiting and selecting high-octane manpower.
