Assessment Question
The course content has traversed a journey from an ‘old economy’ approach to managing people and culture in the name of Human Resource Management, through to a ‘knowledge economy’ state in which a Sustainable Human Relations approach has been advanced as a more progressive alternative. The latter is premised on a flexible, decentralised ‘community of practice’ way of organising and managing people to achieve mutually beneficial strategic outcomes. Drawing on the stakeholder management literature, covered on the course, use the examples drawn from the managing diversity and reward systems literature to demonstrate what the more progressive networking approach can achieve in practice in terms of day-to-day communications and outcomes?
