Human Resource Management in today’s times is the integral differentiator of organizational success.
Today’s organizations face a myriad of complex issues such as globalization, demands for increased
productivity, increased planning and compliance with government legislation. Most of the real life
organizational problems include improper utilization of human resources. Managing human resources
is the biggest challenge that companies face in the current business scenario. Human resources
provide competitive advantage and HR policies and practices have a significant impact on the bottom
line which affects the overall organizational performance. This fundamental course on Human
Resources Management introduces the participants to the nuances of people management in any
organized set-up. The course is designed to acquaint the student with the core systems and processes
of the human resource function in a global context.
