Objectives

The course aims at developing students' capacity to understand what human resource management is, and their capacity to analyse how it works in 'real-life situations', to evaluate practices and propose improvements if necessary.
It provides to future managers keys to interpreting human resources management practices, their challenges, their contributions and their limits, in their organisational context. On this basis, students will be able to grasp the strengths and weaknesses of these practices, and then propose recommendations.

Contents

The course goes through four main stages:

1. Step 1 - Discovering human resource management (HRM) - What is it about?
2. Step 2 - Goeing deeper into one field of HRM - How does it work?
3. Step 3 - Observe in 'real-life' practice - What do organisation members say? Collect data.
4. Step 4 - Describe, analyse, evaluate - How does 'real-life' HRM work? Interpret and discuss data, imagine recommendations.

Teaching methods

The course requires students' active participation.
Each of the steps involves group activities, with several deadlines for groups to deliver a paper or presentation. Each of these steps will contribute, step by step, to the final assignment.

Evaluation methods

The assessment of the course is based on two components:
    A group oral presentation (50%).
    A written group assignment (50%).
Your work consists in original production on your part. Even if you use the help of a conversational robot, for instance, your work must demonstrate scientific soundness, be based on reliable and high-quality sources, provide original data when the assignment requires empirical work, and clearly show the stages of your reasoning. The evaluation criteria that I provide precisely indicate what I expect.

Online resources

The course website on Moodle provides a lot of information and resources. However, participation in the sessions in the classroom and in the group activities is necessary to attain the course objectives.
