Description

Use this brand-new textbook written to support the Level 3 CIPD Certificate in People Practice to succeed in your studies and launch your career as a people professional. Structured around the core knowledge and behaviours needed for the Level 3 CIPD qualification, People Practice provides a thorough understanding of the theory and practice of the key areas of the people profession. This includes business, culture and change in context, workforce analytics and the necessary skills and knowledge for people professionals. This book covers everything from understanding how external factors impact organizational goals, how to develop professional courage and build ethical and inclusive practices through to recruitment, performance, reward and supporting others. Written by the team who developed the new CIPD Level 3 qualification, this book will ensure that students learn both the theory and practice necessary for their academic studies and their future careers. Full of case studies, exercises, key definition boxes and reflective questions, this book will allow students to test their understanding, see how the theory applies in the workplace and develop their critical thinking skills. Further reading suggestions in each chapter encourage a wide and broad engagement with the subject. Online resources include PowerPoint slides, a lecturer's manual and multiple choice questions for students.

Reviews
"People Practice is indeed a complete guide! It provides full coverage of the topics existing and aspirant people managers and specialist practitioners of HR, L&D or OD need to know and understand to plan and deliver great people practice. The activities and case studies prompt reflection and provide inspiration in equal measure and will encourage readers to evaluate people practices in their own organisations. It should be essential reading for all those who are intent on creating and sustaining great people practices." * Amanda Thompson, Head of Personalisation and Experiential Learning, Nottingham Business School, Nottingham Trent University *
"This book provides a comprehensive overview of the core elements of people practice, which will be extremely useful to all students studying HRM, but also HR practitioners as a part of their professional development. In particular, it draws on a number of contemporary issues and with the inclusion of activities and case studies, it supports the practical application of this knowledge helping to bring the learning to life." * Helen Bessant, Lead Assessor for CIPD Level 3 & 5 qualifications and Online Tutor, ICS Learn *
"The perfect accompaniment for both CIPD students and people professionals. The range of topics reflect the changing nature in the world of work in today's organisations. It is a comprehensive guide to the fundamental components of modern HR, written by leading experts who provide insightful perspectives, alongside relevant activities and case studies. This easily understandable and relatable book is an essential resource for all aspiring and practicing people professionals." * Justine McCallum, CIPD Lecturer, Solihull College and University Centre *
"This is an essential guide for academics teaching the new CIPD qualifications, as well as for students and practitioners. The text has clearly been designed to meet the new CIPD standards and written collaboratively by those highly experienced in the field of human resource management." * Michelle Kirkham, Curriculum Leader, Leadership and Management, Blackpool and The Fylde College *

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.
