About the Course

One way or another, all employees are managed. But approaches to managing employees varying from employee-to-employee, job-to-job, manager-to-manager, organization-to-organization, and country-to-country. This course provides a foundation for developing your own approach to skillfully managing employees by illustrating alternative human resource management (HRM) strategies, introducing the importance of the legal context, and thinking about what motivates employees. This will then give you the factual and conceptual basis for developing specific, critical HRM skills in subsequent courses on hiring employees, managing performance, and rewarding employees. Don't know anything about HRM? That's OK! Leave this course with a new-found understanding of the range of options available for managing employees, a grasp of what makes workers tick, and the readiness to develop your own HRM skills....

Excellent course structure, very clear and concise material, John Budd is teaching in a fun way, which helped me understand the syllabus, with short questions to help me think and not too long videos.

The course itself is very good, but I have to lower my review rating because of the peer scored task in module 3. Due to the anonymity of peers on Coursera, there are a lot of trolls who put lowest scores "just because" without giving an explanation what they want you to improve, and there is no way to reach out to them to collect their feedback. So, the peer review tasks are close to pointless, as you get no prompts on what you could improve, and it basically depends on your luck if you land on a decent peer or a troll. A more extensive multiple choice quizzes to see how you understood the theory or even an AI rated text submission has more value. My submission completed all requirements, but passed only on 4th attempt (with minor changes like highlighting key words as people are lazy to actually read), as for the first 3 attempts I kept landing on a duo of a peer giving me 3 points overall and a troll giving me 1 point overall - no explanation why and what was lacking.
