Contents:
Part I. A New Strategy for Managing Human Resources -- Part II. Managing High-Performing Employees: Workhorses and Stars -- Part III. Managing Poor Performance: Problem Employees and Deadwood -- Part IV. Implementing Portfolio Management Strategies.
Summary: Traditionally, management has tended to view labor in terms of supply and demand, with employees considered as short-term expenses to be minimized. In Strategic Management of Human Resources, I take the view that employees can be considered as assets, value can be placed on them, and they can be managed much as a portfolio of stocks is managed, to maintain or increase their value to the organization. These ideas are based on human capital theory-a relatively new economic concept.
