Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Leadership and Human Resource Management - Leadership, grade: 1,2, Protestant University of Applied Sciences Berlin, language: English, abstract: This paper aims to provide an insight into the theory of appraisal interviews and interviewing techniques. The main focus of the paper will be the theoretical foundations of the appraisal interview. At the beginning of the paper, the theoretical basis of the appraisal interview will be presented. For this purpose, the term appraisal interview will be defined in more detail and its objectives will be presented. Then, the components of the appraisal interview will be discussed. In this regard, the discussion on target agreements, the location assessment, the appraisal and development discussion, as well as the discussion on cooperation will be briefly explained. This is followed by a description of the interview process, which is divided into the rough steps of preparation, implementation and follow-up. The benefits of a qualified and committed appraisal interview are then explained.The paper concludes with a presentation of the basics of interviewing for managers. The following aspects are examined: the special situation of an appraisal interview, questioning techniques, active listening, "I" messages, feedback, praise and recognition, and criticism.
This book presents a novel viewpoint in HR management: in addition to the macroeconomic factors (demographic development, industry 4.0, digitization, etc.) and its micro-political counterparts (shortage of skilled workers, an aging workforce, shortage of MINTs), personnel policy in the highly developed economic regions of the world can increasingly be seen from the third point of view, which is the ego-perspective. The complexity of the economic world 4.0 is manifesting itself for the employees in a working world of unlimited possibilities, offering almost limitless freedom of choice, especially for younger people. Due to this shift in the balance of power, the influence of the employers decreases and is often reduced to countering the pronounced self-confidence of the employees in asserting their expectations with corresponding company incentives. The author emphasizes that dealing with the challenges of this extremely fragile world of work - currently exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic - must by no means be left solely in the hands of overburdened personnel managers. The contribution of the line manager or direct superior is becoming increasingly important. And it is only through close and clearly defined cooperation between the two that the opportunity for effective human resources management lies. This book aims to illustrate this process of division of labor in the individual phases of personnel management.

What is human resource strategy? How are human resources strategies formulated and how can we explain the variance between what is espoused and what is actually implemented? What impact – if any – does human resource strategy have on the organization’s "bottom line," and how can this impact be explained? Is there one best HR strategy for all firms, or is the impact of HR strategy on performance contingent on some set of organizational, technological or environmental factors? Human Resource Strategy, 2nd edition, provides an overview of the academic and practitioner responses to these and other questions. Applying an integrative framework, the authors review 30 years’ worth of empirical and theoretical research in an attempt to reconcile often-conflicting conceptual models and competing empirical results. Complex theoretical models and scientific findings are presented in an accessible and relevant way, in the context of the strategic decisions that executives are forced to make on a regular basis. This new edition features an updated literature review, coverage of the latest challenges to HR strategy, new mini-cases, discussion questions, additional examples, and an emphasis on the strategic implications of the research, making it an ideal resource for students and practitioners alike.
