WHAT IS HR????? Human resources is the set of

individuals who make up the workforce of an organization, business sector or an economy.

Other terms sometimes used include "manpower", "talent", "labor" or simply "people".

What is HRM? The process of acquiring, training, appraising, and

compensating employees, and of attending to their labor relations, health and safety, and fairness concerns.

A management function that helps managers recruit, select, train and develop members for an organization.

HRM may be defined as a set of policies, practices and programmes designed to maximize both personal and organizational goals.

"I believe the real difference between success and failure in a corporation can be very often traced to the question of how well the organization brings out the great energies and talents of its people."

Thomas J. Watson, Jr.

And I'd say one of the great lessons I've learned over the past couple of decades, from a management perspective, is that really when you come down to it, it really is all about people and all about leadership.Steve Case
