About the book

The definitive textbook for mastering HRM theory and practice in today's evolving workplace.

How can HR professionals navigate global change while delivering measurable organizational value? Human Resource Management at Work by Mick Marchington, Adrian Wilkinson, Rory Donnelly and Anastasia Kynighou provides postgraduate and CIPD Level 7 students with the comprehensive knowledge and applied skills needed to succeed in advanced HRM modules and professional practice.

Structured in four parts, the book begins with HRM strategy and the global context before examining the roles of HR professionals and line managers. It then offers in-depth coverage of resourcing, talent management, learning and development, reward and employment relations. The final section explores HRM's contribution to business performance and the key capabilities required to manage business projects. Updated content addresses artificial intelligence in HR, HR ecosystems, equal value and pay ethics and agile project management approaches, supported by international real-world examples.

Structured learning features include:
- Reflective practice activities to encourage critical thinking
- Real-world examples from global organizations
- Exercises to consolidate learning and apply theory to practice
- 'Explore further' sections to prompt wider reading
- Online instructor's manual and lecture slides for structured teaching

Whether preparing for the CIPD Level 7 qualification or deepening postgraduate HR expertise, this textbook equips students with the insight, skills, and confidence to excel in HRM roles across diverse organizational contexts.
