Undeniably, organizations cannot exist without employees. Although the management of many organizations often places more emphasis on functional specializations, such as financial control and operations management, the human element remains crucial to achieving the goals mentioned above.
This course is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of the field of Human Resource Management. In particular, the purpose and role of Human Resource Management in the broader business environment will be examined, a critical evaluation of its core functions will be made, as well as an analysis of modern strategic approaches.
Students, as future managers, are invited to understand how Human Resource Management can support and enhance the overall business purpose. At the same time, they are called upon to develop critical thinking in order to evaluate in depth its basic functions, examining how and why they are chosen, how they are implemented, as well as what their results are. They will also cultivate the skill of weighing bibliographic models and theories of best practice, evaluating their application or the need to reconsider them in practice.
