Download or read book Human Resource Management Practices written by Monica Sifuna-Evelia and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2017-07-25 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this book is to link my human resource management experiences with my perception on what the Bible demonstrates about human resource management in general. My experiences are derived from industries such as health, media, security, education, manufacturing, and the banking industry. The Scripture quoted in this book is from the Holy Bible, New International Version (NIV). In the book, I have also made a number of references to the Kenyan Labor Laws of 2007 (Employment Act 2007, the Occupational Health and Safety Act, and Labor Relations Act 2007). This book serves to enlighten employees about human resource management. Employees should learn that when a human resource practitioner does something, it is not out of malice but rather in line with the human resource policies. It is therefore the duty of the employees to adhere to the employee code of conduct and the human resource policies. Managers in other departments will also get enlightened to embrace and support the human resource department. These managers should learn that human resource policies apply to everyone in the organization regardless of their job titles. The human resource department is just as important as any other department in any organization. Human resource practitioners are therefore to be treated with respect and dignity as a part of the larger team driving the vision of the organization. Human resource practitioners will be encouraged to learn that in my perspective, the Bible is in support of human resource management practices. The Bible also gives human resource practitioners guidelines on how to run the human resource function. The human resource practitioners should therefore demonstrate integrity and professionalism as they work in this noble profession. Students joining universities will get motivation to pursue human resource management as a career from my story in this book. This is a unique, interesting, and well-rewarding career.

Download or read book Biblical Principles of Leading and Managing Employees written by Bruce E. Winston and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-05-17 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the scriptural concepts that apply to leading and managing people. It begins with a chapter that contrasts leaders, managers, and administrators and the roles they each play. The book then presents the seven virtues from the Beatitudes and how these virtues result in leaders and managers’ behaviors. The book then reviews the 15 characteristics of what love is and what love is not from the 1 Corinthians 12 passage. The book presents the four modalities of leaders as conveyed in the Ezekiel 1 and 10 chapters, as well as Revelations 4 where Ezekiel and John describe the four faces of the winged beings. The modalities are described in terms of contemporary leaders interacting with employees in the workplace. A chapter follows, based on the Parable of the Vineyard and how leaders should provide a minimum living wage. The book then compares the wife in Proverbs 31 to a good leader/manager in today’s contemporary organization. The book ends with an admonition from Ecclesiastes 3:1 about the need for leaders/managers to step away and not meddle when the leader/manager’s role is finished. Throughout the book, composite case examples provide practical application of the concepts to contemporary organizations.

Download or read book Faith Based Human Resource Management written by David Robinson and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some managers want to integrate the Bible into their managerial thinking. This book teaches them how. It teaches how to achieve a diverse workforce, maximum worker productivity, legal compliance, fewer lawsuits, clearer conscience, and, hopefully, good profits. It is for managers and employees of all faiths. Written by Connecticut lawyer David A. Robinson, the book is more a legal guide and practical guide than a religious guide. But it has a religious flavor. It includes innovative, faith-based tips to help achieve good profits and help prevent race discrimination, ethnicity discrimination, sex discrimination, age discrimination, religion discrimination, disability discrimination, and sexual orientation discrimination in the workplace. This book comes along at the right time. Donald Trump is, according to his daughter Ivanka, "color blind and gender neutral." Whether President Trump is indeed "color blind and gender neutral" is perhaps debatable, but employers can expect that beginning on January 20, 2017, they will be hearing the words "color-blind and gender neutral" more and more. It will more and more become national policy. This book is an excellent guide for them. There are, of course, a few circumstances when employers should not be color blind and gender neutral. Robinson discusses these circumstances. President Trump says his favorite book is the Bible. We may be hearing the words "faith-based" more during the Trump administration than during the previous administration.

Download or read book Evaluating Employee Performance through Christian Virtues written by Mihai C. Bocarnea and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book the authors create a statistically validated scale measuring the display of each of the nine fruit of the spirit in employees. The authors will discuss how biblical values are applicable to contemporary organizational leadership and management. These nine virtues span a wide breadth of important personal and organizational attributes including benevolence, affection, gladness, relational harmony, tranquility, perseverance, helpfulness, caring for the welfare of others, adherence to the beliefs and value of others, power used soberly, and mastering one’s desires. While diverse in nature, the list also suggests a holistic development of personal and organizational character. Understanding the manner in which these traits can be measured will be a significant benefit to HRM and HRD scholars conducting research in Christian servant leadership.
Download or read book Contemporary 21st Century Strategic Human Resources Management written by Aaron Bradley Locklear and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-01-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strategic Human Resource Management (SHRM) is the macrame of complex strategies weaved together to align an organization's human resources with its objectives. Solidly placed at the core of modern business operations, the importance of SHRM cannot be overstated. As an HR consultant and a tour guide through this terrain, I find particular intrigue in the merging of biblical teachings with current SHRM practices. In essence, SHRM is people-oriented to its core, underpinned by principles akin to the Bible's teachings of love, respect, and fairness. Behold, then, an ethical framework rooted deeply in fairness and respect for human dignity emerges from the confluence of religious principles and modern human resource strategies. Imagine integrating the wisdom of the Bible, such as the golden rule - treat others as one would like others to treat oneself (Matthew 7:12) into business strategies? Picture a workplace culture shaped by servant leadership where leaders use their influence for the benefit of their team, akin to the shepherd overseeing his flock (1 Peter 5:2). Such is the stunning vista we encounter when we approach SHRM from a biblical perspective. In this new light, conflict management becomes less a contentious issue and more a path of harmonious co-existence. Paul's teaching in Romans, to "live peaceably with all" (Romans 12:18), advocates for a harmonious workplace environment, a tenet aligned simultaneously with both biblical principles and SHRM. Integrating these religious tenets into corporate strategy may appear akin to fitting a square peg in a round hole. However, the result is the formation of an ethical axis on which managerial decisions pivot to foster respect for humanity and promote fair practices. What the Bible brings to the SHRM table is invaluable wisdom and guidance. By aligning human resource practices to biblical principles, organizations build an empathetic, respectful work environment that motivates every employee to achieve their full potential. Remember, people are the organization's most valuable asset. Therefore, viewing SHRM through a biblical lens reminds us of the essential dignity and respect that each human deserves. The marriage of biblical teachings with SHRM practices results in a concerto that strikes a high note in organizational harmony, productivity, and success. After all, every successful organization thrives on the foundation of compassion, justice, respect, and love.
