Putting critical realism to work. 520 "Human resource departments increasingly use the statistical analysis of performance indicators as a way of demonstrating their contribution to organisational performance. In this book, Steve Fleetwood and Anthony Hesketh take issue with this 'scientific' approach by arguing that its preoccupation with statistical analysis is misplaced because it fails to take account of the complexities of organisations and the full range of issues that influence individual performance. The book is split into three parts. Part I deconstructs research into the alleged link between people and business performance by showing that it cannot explain the associations it alleges. Part II attributes these shortcomings to the importation of spurious 'scientific' methods, before going on to suggest more appropriate methods that might be used in future. Finally, Part III explores how HR executives and professionals understand their work and shows how a critical realist stance adds value to this understanding through enhanced explanation"--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Personnel management.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85100143 650 7 Personnel management.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1058797 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Hesketh, Anthony.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2004094461 776 08 |iPrint version:|aFleetwood, Steve, 1955-|tExplaining the performance of human resource management.|dCambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2010|z9780521875998 |w(DLC) 2010008748|w(OCoLC)535491224 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=329382|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
