This in depth yet concise text has been designed specifically to cater for the CIPD module in Managing and Leading People and as such is closely aligned to the Standards. Students on similar modules with appropriate content such as People and Organisations, on wider business degrees, will also find the book extremely useful. Building on the success of the first edition, this revised and updated edition adopts a more international perspective and includes brand new material, including more on organisational behaviour. Other hot topics covered include managing and leading people in a strategic context, ethics and diversity, the psychological contract, motivation and reward, recruitment and selection and developing for the future. The text includes a range of learning features to encourage students to be more critical, such as case studies, real-world examples and discussion questions.
