In organisations the speed of communication often provides a competitive advantage. 3. HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT An introduction to the concepts and practices of human resource management and focuses on the management of recruitment, retention and employment cessation. Occasionally employment has to be terminated. However, the focus of human resource management has moved beyond personnel management towards a more proactive approach that, in addition to the traditional roles associated with staff management, also considers how to get the best people and the best out of people so that they work in roles and in ways that are closely aligned to organisational objectives.

MANAGING PEOPLE AND PERFORMANCE This unit is to develop your knowledge and understanding of the skills needed for managing people and performance in the workplace. Learners will do this through understanding the importance of learning and development and the role of leadership for effective team working. Effective people management is essential for business success and staff training and learning and development are key to achieving it. Managers need to understand the patterns of behaviour that individuals and groups display in order to take appropriate actions. In this unit, you will examine how characteristics, such as individual differences of needs and wants have an impact on organisational behaviour. 6. MANAGING INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE The aim of this unit is to give learners knowledge and understanding of the importance of managing the flow of information and knowledge in an organisation.
