Why you should read Partnership HR

Irving H. Buchen is a widely published author on human resources (HR) design and its contribution to corporate value. In this book, he shows you how to rethink the ways your HR team can enhance your company’s competitive edge. In his view, companies need to pay attention to workforce structure and give workers the credit they deserve. It isn’t enough to do what you did yesterday, because your competition has already changed the rules. He outlines steps HR can take to help mold your workforce into a sharp competitive tool. Buchen’s prose is not always clear, and he does love the professional argot of HR, but the value of his advice compensates well for that. getAbstract recommends this book to HR professionals.
