Basic Psychology for Human Resource Practitioners
Description
Differences in personality and behaviour are part of the dynamic workplace. They can be understood better, and managed if necessary, if the HR practitioner or HR manager has some knowledge of psychology. Basic Psychology for Human Resource Practitioners Fourth Edition discusses individual differences, abilities, attitudes, perceptions, personalities, and ways of learning, and covers the most important aspects of measuring personality traits. It also explains aspects of group behaviour, be they social, political, cultural, or recreational. The Basic Psychology for Human Resource Practitioners deals with the historical development of human resource management, the functions of human resource departments, and current and future trends in human resource management in South Africa. An update of the 2019 edition, it references more recent sources, and uses practical examples that reflect new developments in the field.
