5 credits

Despite common misperceptions, human resource (HR) managers are tasked with more than hiring, firing, and managing employee benefits. In this course, students learn why it important for a company to adjust to the varying needs of both domestic and international clients as well as how HR management helps to ensure this happens through various activities, including sourcing in a global environment. Students examine how HR management functions and activities can be the key to long-term business success, strategically aligning corporate goals with those of stakeholders and all major areas of a business, including marketing, finance, technology, and operations. They compare and contrast HR management strategies, such as incentive cash and/or stock compensation programs, employee ownership, and nonmonetary rewards. Students also evaluate the impact such strategies have on employee motivation and retention.
