Great Learning Material

While there is no shortage of texts on human resources management, it is not easy to find one as practical and useful as Human Resource Management: A Tool for Competitive Advantage by Lawrence Kleiman. I train new HR managers and consult with General Managers in China and have found this to be the best book for both audiences. The case studies and practical applications are right on the money, even in multinationals doing business in foreign countries. This is a must-have for my library.
