Publisher's Synopsis
PUBLISHED: 2013 copyright This textbook is the first of it kind in context in terms of generally comparing, contrasting, and critiquing the application to the study of organisation and human resources management in practice. The subjects and topic areas of this interesting textbook include the following: Organisation Organisational Management Role Human Resource Management Employment Contracts Ghana's Labour Act 2003, Act 651 (Extracts/copied) Human Resource Development This is meant to educate people about ideal studies with right materials about organisation and management in general so that users of this textbook would appreciate that we may be labels or stickers in our practices in terms of positions and not what the original creation of the subjects and its topics mean in principle. The White man has created these subjects and topics which works for them and that is why they are developed. So, if for whatever reason we adopt these same topics and subjects and we are still developing means that the studies in terms of application and practicality are not the same, hence, we are labels or stickers of what we think we are in terms of names and titles of positions. Therefore, it is important for us to understand this and strategise our way of learning and educating others about the effectiveness of applying and working as the White man created them purposefully. This means without compromising the fact that we relegate the realities to the ground and pretend to be acting in positions as good decision makers. This textbook advocates for people to start applying the subjects of studies such as this in strict manners for good results. What this textbook try to present is that if you are a manager means you should work like a manager in any other parts of the work and not that you are a manager and then allow external forces or elements to interfere with your work so that you do not make decisions that are real on the ground but to please another person or self conscience. Practices like this would never get us anywhere as a developing nation because if our attitudes and way of doing things does not conform to that of a White man then we should not expect our economy to grow to that level. Hence, are we who we think we are in terns of professionalism? We cannot continue to be faking our positions and level of education and understanding of the real world because due to prestige others in top positions do not make room for new or young people to get closer. Therefore, such practice in terms of organisational behaviour and management cannot in the actual fact produce good human capital.
