Managing people : A practical guide for line managers
Line managers are increasingly having to take on responsibility for such personnel matters as recruitment, discipline, pay and training, and Michael Armstrong's new book deals with this topical issue, focusing on what line managers need to learn about these areas and how they can apply this knowledge at work. This book is a resource for line managers seeking to fill in any gaps in their knowledge, and will enable them to deal more confidently and efficiently with any day-to-day personnel questions that arise and which, with personnel specialists now assuming the role of policy advisor, can no longer be passed on to colleagues. Managing People covers: people management skills;resourcing;performance management;development and reward of employees;health and safety and the legal framework. The author explains personnel terminology directly, without jargon, and supplies plenty of practical examples throughout the book.
