The New Hr: Adding Value To Humans And To Work

This book by Prof. Dr. Acar Baltaş, who is well acquainted with the path stretching from Personnel Management to Human Resources (HR) Management, stands as a guide book in the subject of human resources. It is written with the belief that a radical change was needed in the views of human resourcing on business life.

In his evaluations, Prof. Dr. Acar Baltaş argues that the business world experiencing a stormy process of fast change in the passage from the industrial stage with the dominance of value added by labour to that of information processing has forced HR workers and managers into a struggle they have not been used to. He states that HR, by going beyond being a supportive unit serving the internal client and improving the internal processes of the institution, has to understand the competition the institution is in, produce solutions suiting the client opinion and to create all of this within the logic of trading.

This book, which will impart the business sector a different perspective, aims to alter the passive role of HR from that of adaptation to the changing world to an effective contemporary role in triggering change and realising conversion.
