Publisher's Synopsis
"Just as doctors rely on the Physician's Desk Reference for quick yet in-depth information, managers have learned to depend on this comprehensive sourcebook to pinpoint, prevent, and solve the many kinds of people-problems that arise daily in their jobs. Covering 45 topics, this new edition is completely updated, with chapters on such important new issues as diversity; change management; AIDS; employees with disabilities; part-time, temporary, and contingent workers; work-family issues; and much more. All this new material is in addition to concise yet substantial coverage of perennial concerns like motivation, performance appraisal, recruitment, coaching, discipline, time management, and more. The A-to-Z format makes this reference especially quick and easy to use."
