Objectives: a) To provide participants with a concrete vision of how HRM and TM contribute to the effectiveness of the organization. b) To help participants the various approaches of how this contribution operates. c) To explore some HRM techniques and processes. d) To sensitize future (or current) managers to integrate some HRM practices into their managerial role.

Learning Outcomes: Students are not limited to notional learning, but are accompanied in a path of acquiring appropriate skills.
Contents:
a) This course in HRM and TM is designed for participants who, most of them, will never practice HRM as their main function. However they will be addressing HRM issues at any moment of their career. b) The course will insist on the fact that HRM and TM has to contribute to the effectiveness of the organization whatever the indicators to measure it. c) As any human topic the keys for addressing the issues refers to what we call theories, that is a way of looking at the situations. The difficulty with HR is that everybody has the impression to know already: the course will endeavour to enrich and enlarge the vision of the participants in that area. d) Of course a few processes and policies of HRM will be explored in more detail, avoiding the facet of labour law that is so dependent upon the local legal frame. The topics of Talent Management, performance management and pay will be covered. e) Eventually, we will insist on the way of being an HR professional in one’s own managerial role.

Methodology: a) Presentations and discussions; b) Case studies; c) Exercises; d) (if participants are currently holding a position in an organizations, some pedagogical activities will be related to their own personal situation).

Means of evaluation: Individual and group-assessments (field-work on their own professional situation if relevant).
