Why a focus on jobs is not enough Force-fitting employees to job descriptions leads to unhappy people and substandard performance. For years, HR professionals have struggled with this dilemma. But it doesn't have to be that way. Competency-Based Human Resource Management describes a new model of performance management that matches employee talents to the work that must be done. By focusing on the critical competencies that distinguish star performers, HR professionals can transform the way they recruit, select, train, develop, and compensate top-performing employees.

Competency-based HRM is a methodology adopted by various organizations to assess the current capacity of their resources based on competencies, against the capacity needed to achieve the vision, mission and business goals of the organization. This book comprehensively dwells on all the aspects of competency-based Human Resource Management, and its relevance in various industry verticals. The book has been organized into five chapters—each focusing on the tools and techniques to judge core competencies.

Benchmarking competency models and assessment tools are also dealt with in detail. The concluding chapter elaborates competency applications to Human Resource Management in the functional areas of recruitment training and development. The book is interspersed with the Case Studies to add practical insight to the subject. The book serves both as a textbook for management students and as a reference book for working HR professionals.

Effective Human Resource Management is the Center for Effective Organizations' (CEO) sixth report of a fifteen-year study of HR management in today's organizations. The only long-term analysis of its kind, this book compares the findings from CEO's earlier studies to new data collected in 2010. Edward E. Lawler III and John W. Boudreau measure how HR management is changing, paying particular attention to what creates a successful HR function—one that contributes to a strategic partnership and overall organizational effectiveness. Moreover, the book identifies best practices in areas such as the design of the HR organization and HR metrics. It clearly points out how the HR function can and should change to meet the future demands of a global and dynamic labor market. For the first time, the study features comparisons between U.S.-based firms and companies in China, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, and other European countries. With this new analysis, organizations can measure their HR organization against a worldwide sample, assessing their positioning in the global marketplace, while creating an international standard for HR management.
