This innovative book proposes hands-on approaches to learning about human resource (HR) management. William J. Rothwell, Kevin P. Weaver and Sohel M. Imroz draw on a unique blend of case studies and interactive role-play to enhance learning engagement and provide structured, yet flexible, designs.

Using a combination of short case scenes and role-play opportunities, the authors allow readers to experience building an HR department. They demonstrate how role-play and simulations can be used to create effective, experiential learning environments for complex business topics, incorporating a variety of workplace contexts from startups to multinational corporations. Advocating for simulation-based approaches which align with modern executive education methods and support applied learning, the book imparts practical knowledge on how HR departments are established while developing applied skills in hiring, employee relations and workforce management.

Allowing readers to move beyond theory to practice real-world decision-making, Building Practical Skills in Human Resource Management is an essential resource for faculty members, aspiring HR professionals and instructional educators focused on simulation-based learning. Scholars and students of HR and business administration will similarly benefit from its novel conceptual approach.
