Description

A bland book with little of interest, unless you work for a government department in a third-world country. Reads like an academic treatise from a second-year student in 1990. The ideas are trite and lack substance. For example, "dealing with poor performance" is discussed in a single paragraph. "Long term incentives and share ownership", too, is glossed over in a micro-paragraph about trends with nary a reference to shareholder value and rewards. This book is an excellent example of the lead-lag chasm between American HR practices and Europe's archaic thinking.
