Reviews
`De Janasz and Crossman have drawn on their professional colleagues to provide an impressive collection of tried and true experiential exercises to help students gain hands-on understanding of human resource management. These useful exercises engage students in the kind of active learning that is essential to apply HRM theories to concrete, practical situations. In reflecting on their experiential learning, students acquire a deeper, more personal knowledge of what HRM is all about. Teaching Human Resource Management: An Experiential Approach is an essential and valuable companion to more standard texts in HRM.' -- Thomas G. Cummings, University of Southern California, US `This pioneering book by de Janasz and Grossman is a terrific resource. It not only covers a wide range and comprehensive set of topics with which all HRM students (and practitioners) need to be familiar. It also offers well-designed experiential exercises that promote students' active engagement with the topic at hand. I would love to take the course that uses this book!' -- Gary N. Powell, University of Connecticut and Lancaster University, US `An experiential approach to the teaching of HRM makes each topic come alive. By actively participating and becoming highly engaged in each exercise, students generate important lessons that tie theory to practice. The exercises in this book enable all of that and they fill an important gap. Tried and true exercises in 15 key areas of HR, developed by a diverse group of HR scholars, provide choice, flexibility, and comprehensiveness to any HR course or executive education program.' -- Wayne Cascio, University of Colorado Denver, US `An organization's human asset pool, its people, are the intangible (in accounting terms) foundation which executives strive to organize and transform into tangible financial results. While in many industrialized organizations the Human Resource function is greatly under-valued, Teaching Human Resource Management presents a wide array of teaching plans to help business students understand and feel the importance of the Human Resource function. The editors have compiled a relatively comprehensive and global perspective on how to teach the value, aspects, and challenges of Human Resource Management. Instructors world-wide will find many, many useful insights here.' -- James G. Clawson, University of Virginia, US `At a time when classrooms are increasingly being flipped where interactive activities are increasingly being used to teach more than lecture, Teaching Human Resource Management: An Experiential Approach edited by Suzanne de Janasz and Joanna Crossman is a perfect resource for faculty who are trying to foster higher student engagement. There are a wealth of exercises from a myriad of experts on many HR topics. These include not only traditional issues such as selection, performance appraisal, EEO, discrimination and job analysis but newer topics such as virtual mentoring, expatriate assessment, diversity and gendered language.'
