The role of the individual manager is also looked at within these contexts. The text looks at the stakeholder persepective as it affects the management of people, and links human resource management policy and practice to financial results. Comparisons between different countries introduces material that recognizes that the law in this area now originates in Europe, and it is acknowledged that many managers now work for multinational companies.
