Book excerpt: Examining the development of the human resources profession in America since the 1940s, this history discusses the vital role the industry has played in shaping American labor policies and explores the impact of the Society for Human Resource Management throughout the years. Chronicling many of the industry’s most important developments, including the creation of the U.S. Departments of Commerce and Labor, the establishment of national wage and hour laws, and the passing of the Medicare Act, this fascinating account places these changes in the context of world events, discusses the important role human resources plays in American business, and considers the future of human resources over the next 60 years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of human resource development embraces humankind's investment in one another's skills, knowledge, and abilities. As the field transitions into a more mature discipline, there is a need to understand the philosophies upon which certain theories and methodologies are based. Providing a historical narrative of HRD from the beginning of human history through modern times, this book reveals the consistent interaction between the philosophies of the time, theories, and methods of people management and how these philosophies impact what is known as HRD today. Drs. Gosney and Hughes offer a robust examination of HRD and provide a methodology for critical thinking to better understand the theories and assumptions of the field. They provide a model whereby scholars and practitioners can better understand and evaluate modern HRD through the context of HRD history.

Book excerpt: Leading in organizations working for justice is not the same as leading anywhere else. Staff expect to be treated as partners and demand internal practices that center equity. Justice leaders must meet these expectations, as well as recognize and address the ways that individuals and organizations inadvertently replicate oppression. Created specifically for social justice leaders, Leading for Justice addresses specific concerns and issues that beset organizations working for social justice and offers practices and models that center justice and equity. Topics include: the role of a supervisor in a social justice organization, the importance of self-awareness, issues of power and privilege, human resources as a justice partner, misses and messes, and clear guidelines for holding people accountable in a manner that is respectful and effective. Written in a friendly, accessible, and supportive tone, and offering discussion questions at the end of each short section to make the book user-friendly for both individuals and teams, Leading for Justice is a book for leaders who want to walk the talk of supporting social justice, in their organizations and in the world.

Book excerpt: Control Data Corporation, a legendary Minnesota company that developed both cutting edge computer technology and innovative social ventures that combated poverty. This book focuses on these social business ventures. They were primarily launched by the companys Human Resources function during the 1960s to the 1980s. The Human Resources function helped Control Data create a series of poverty-area plants. These manufacturing centers were specifically built within communities afflicted by economic hardship. The plants became successful, maintaining long term employees and improving the vitality of their surrounding communities. The HR function then developed internal ventures to help employees overcome work related problems, obesity, drug additions, and other social ills. These internal support ventures, specifically Employee Advisory Resource, were eventually sold to outside customers. Many of these employee policies and services are now standard practice within todays corporate culture.
