Book description
This invaluable reference tool has been designed in response to
the growing recognition that too little is known about the intersection
between entrepreneurship and human resource management. Paying
particular attention to the 'people' side of venture emergence and
development, it offers unique insights into the role that human resource
management (HRM) plays in small and entrepreneurial firms.
A group of international scholars contribute theoretical and empirical
chapters on specific HRM issues in the context of entrepreneurial and
smaller firms. The Handbook offers a new understanding of the
role of HRM in developing sustainable entrepreneurship and describes how HRM
practices and procedures can be used to help navigate and, indeed, drive the
changing landscape in these firms.
Exploring the functional aspects and nature of managing HRM in new, small,
growing, emerging and entrepreneurial firms, this fascinating Handbook
will not only be warmly welcomed by HRM students, researchers and academics,
but also by HR practitioners and managers.
