Hrd Audit : Evaluating The Human Resource Function For Business Improvement 01 Edition

0.0

This path-breaking book provides a balanced and comprehensive exposition of the concept of HRD audit and the tools and techniques required for its implementation. Dr T V Rao provides both the framework and a detailed methodology of HRD audit so as to enable corporations to conduct an internal audit of their HR functions themselves. A unique feature of the book is the HRD Score Card which has been developed and tested by Dr Rao. This Score Card can be used to assess and benchmark the maturity level of the HRD function in organisations and make it more business-driven. It assigns a four-letter rating to grade four critical dimensions of HRD which contribute vitally to organisational performance: HRD systems maturity, HRD competencies, HRD culture and values, and HRD linkages to business goals.Table of ContentsPrefaceI.
