Strategic HRM comes from the resource based view of strategic management.  This view holds that one company is advantaged over another by its preferential access to information and resources.  \n  OK, this aside, if one company has a big manufacturing facility, can't another one borrow and buy a big facility too? Answer is often "yes". which leads us to the idea that companies need to compete by acquiring knowledge and skill faster than the competition.\n  Here is where KRM comes in.  Companies need to both hire for a competitive advantage, meaning getting the employees for the best fit with the company's strategy, but they need to also 1)  develop these employees to fit the current needs, 2) develop these employees to support and facilitate the changes in the business environment of the organization, and 3)  need to keep these assets you just developed.

The role of a HR dept is critical to any business.  HR is more than just hiring people.  They are also responsible for keeping people by managing their payroll, training, compensation, benefits (lots of jobs here from administration to pension management), and the strategic direction of the company.  There are a lot of opportunities in HR as a career.  Talk to people, do some exploring and see if it is for you.  Good luck.

Human Resources is the field which includes personnel, but also like HR would be in charge of making sure the company would be following the law with regards to its people management policies.  Personnel is like hiring and data entry on a guys names.

This depends on the company that you are targeting for employment.  Most larger firms require at least a business degree, preferably in management and a specialization in HR. The HR profession is trying to aggregate like the accounting field, and as formed the "Human Relations Certification Institute" where you can probably find more direct information than I have to offer.\n\nGood luck to you...

Good companies have realized that its major assets are the competent human assets that it holds.\n\nA focussed and well defined HR Policy, covering from recruiting the right people, to training, development and reciprocating HR will ensure success for any company.\n\nWhat you have asked is a complete semester study program and is too vague to comment in such a short space but nevertheless, in a nut shell:\n\n1. Focussed, clear and objective job descriptions is a start.\n\n2. The advancement levels and pre-requisites for each job.\n\n3. Basic ingredients required by the successful candidate.\n\n4. Recruiting the right candidate.\n\n5. Providing adequate training and support.\n\n6. Provide opportunties for HR growth and polishing skills.\n\n7. A clear and healthy compensation plan.\n\n8. A clear and conducive serevence policy.\n\n9. A well-defined reward and accountability policy.\n\n10. Clearly understand, IT IS PEOPLE WHO MAKE COMPANIES BIG OR SMALL & IT IS PEOPLE WHO HELP COMPANIES ACHIEVE OBJECTIVES.\n\nThink of it this way: Your best friend is your body, if you look after it well, you can do what you want, if your body gives way then it is all a dream that remains. But for the body to function well, you should sharpen your mental skills, improve your health conditions, employ discipline etc.

Teamwork is important because everyone has different strengths and different weaknesses.  Where one person may be weak, another person may be strong.  Putting them together makes for a really great advantage for a company.\n\nAlso, teamwork is as important internally as it is externally.  For companies who work in the service industry, teamwork is a must because you cannot have an employee who wants to do things his way only.  He must be able to work along with the client and understand the clients needs.

The new concept of business is built around people.\n\nAt the end of the industrial revolution in the industrialized nations saw a great deal of lacking in their long term business prospect. The issue was not only that the customer was now looking for innovation or a change from what they have been used to, but quality standards had been revised.\n\nChange is the only thing that remains constant. \n\nIn order to overcome this challenge a business entity has to be always evolving. A cultural change is needed. No machines will work without people, and machines do not replace humans but they redefine our jobs.\n\nIn order for an organization to be profitable and remain so, they need a loyal customer base and a dedicated HR. As it is HRM has its own challenges and thus it forms a subset of achieving TQM in any organization, to be able to address these needs adequately. A sense of belonging, appreciation, training, on the job training, reviews and inter departmental communication are some of the key factors of a successful HRD contribution to the organization.\n\nThe issue can take a semester, however, extensive resources are available on the net. I recommend that case studies be consulted for a better understanding of the subject.

The most important resource available to a manager, is the people working under him or her. When assigning a new task or bringing a new project on board, it is vital for the manager to assure he or she is not expecting more from his or  her subordinates than is humanly possible. If the employees are overworked, overwhelmed or have a larger workload than they can handle, it's time to reevaluate and shift some duties. It is also a manager's job to assure that employees have the tools neccessary to get the job done. For example, if you (as manager) require a spreadheet analysis of something, but don't provide the computer or software neccessary for a spreadsheet to be created easily and quickly, you are wasting the resource of your employee's time. Managing resources can be the trickest part of being a manager.

The human relations movement was initiated by psychologists and employment experts in the United States in the 1920s. The movement viewed workers in terms of their psychology and fit with companies, rather than as interchangeable parts.\n\nThis view was advanced in reaction to the efficiency focus of Taylorism in the early 1900s. Though human resources have been part of business and organisations since the first days of agriculture, the modern concept of human resources was codified by advocates of a human relations view.\n\nThis movement grew throughout the middle of the 20th century, placing emphasis on how leadership, cohesion, and loyalty played important roles in organizational success, and on the value of participatory management. Although this view was increasingly challenged by more quantitatively rigorous and less "soft" management techniques in the 1960s and beyond, human resources had gained a permanent role within the firm.

the relevance is to know how people would behave, react and adapt to any change or a given condition of work. management planning is related to what you plan to do and how you would do it with the given resources. people in any organisation are its human resources - i.e. human capital. thus the relevance is to know how the people would react to any management decisions and thereby effectively make careful preparations with such human factors in mind.

typically involves the development (i.e. education) of employees.  For example, providing diversity training or specific skills training - like training on project management or programming skills would all be human resource development.\n\nWhen the term is used this formally though, it's typically being said by the HR (Human Resource) department, so it probably implies a more general training for the entire corporate workforce (i.e. diversity training or 401K plan training, etc.).  Or, it some instances, it could be used to describe development of a resource who is not performing well.  In other words, if a person gets a bad review, they may have to go through "human resource development."
