The advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) has created a pressing need for digital transformation in human resources management (HRM) in public institutions. Traditional practices must be updated, preventing institutions from effectively managing their workforce and meeting stakeholder demands. The lack of digitalization leads to inefficiencies, ineffective performance evaluation, and an inability to adapt to the rapidly evolving technological landscape. This gap between existing HR practices and the demands of the digital age poses a significant challenge for public sector organizations. Digital Transformation in Public Sector Human Resource Management offers a comprehensive solution to the challenges faced by public institutions. The book provides practical insights and strategies for aligning HR practices with the modern technological landscape by exploring how digital transformation can revolutionize HRM processes. It demonstrates the benefits of adopting digital technologies and innovative strategies in public sector HRM through real-world examples and case studies. The book guides public sector professionals, policymakers, and academics, helping them navigate the complexities of digital transformation in HRM.

Contemporary economists, when analyzing economic behavior of people, need to use the diversity of research methods and modern ways of discovering knowledge. The increasing popularity of using economic experiments requires the use of IT tools and quantitative methods that facilitate the analysis of the research material obtained as a result of the experiments and the formulation of correct conclusions. This proceedings volume presents problems in contemporary economics and provides innovative solutions using a range of quantitative and experimental tools. Featuring selected contributions presented at the 2018 Computational Methods in Experimental Economics Conference (CMEE 2018), this book provides a modern economic perspective on such important issues as: sustainable development, consumption, production, national wealth, the silver economy, behavioral finance, economic and non-economic factors determining the behavior of household members, consumer preferences, social campaigns, and neuromarketing. International case studies are also offered.
