nice to read it

I think the book fits more as a manual. It is full with steps and tips. Yet, linking the HR concepts to their underlying theories and models in other scientific field was not very satisfying to me.

Simple and kinda good book for introductory level readers. Cases in the end of the chapters and Asian perspective was useful.But whole book was not very satisfying to me.
~~ I got the highest score score on HR final exam in a very bad condition, lalala ;) ~

This is not an especially thrilling or well-written book, but it is useful for anyone who wishes to take on a leadership or management position over human beings. With especial attention to Canadian law, the authors give information about the ways in which human resources are recruited, used, motivated, reprimanded, and retained. It is most useful in a business setting, but can be adapted to non-profit or volunteer environments.

As far as textbooks go, this one was well laid out with a lot of good information. There are a lot of forms, examples, processes, etc. that will be very useful for my specific situation so this is actually a textbook that I will be keeping and making use of in the future.

[Hugo Fostin Hokianto · Rating 4 out of 5]

Gary Dessler's Human Resource Management book is a staple textbook for learning what HRM does in a company/organization as a department and a function. The book gives a solid explanation on what a HR manager's roles, what they should do and avoid, and what to do in situations where dilemmas (technical or ethical) occurs.

It is a must read for any HR Managers and students undertaking the Human Resource Management course.

完全沒有幫助。
人力資源與人事的“有所為”和“有所不為”，和工會的職能有所覆蓋有所不覆蓋？
有工會的大公司肯定有人力資源部門，兩者是競爭還是合作？
沒有工會的小企業都不見得會有人事職位，老闆即人事，人人皆可能做人事職能。

如果要說看人的話，
看人依賴的是經驗與自身公司文化的決定人，
感覺都不在人事手上。
如果要說看錢和福利的話，
取決於公司總體的資源豐富與盈利能力。
如果要說“自由解僱”和“不自由解僱”的話，
人事是無法培養忠誠的載體，對離職和入職並不起決定因素。

感覺公司對人才儲備真正的種子庫，
不是在人事或獵頭手上。

選人、選對人確實挺微妙的。
人事更像是檔案館，負責人員流動的建檔與紀錄。

the book explains a thorough understanding of Human Resources Management. though during the time of 4.0 IR, I believe HRM issues need other solutions during the pandemic and prevent other unpredictable conundrums.
