Rezensionen

What a wonderful tool for professional development or candidate screening. After serving 15 years as an urban school superintendent, I can attest this publication contains realistic examples that school administrators may face on any given work day. -- Richard J. Halik, Ph.D., superintendent emeritus, Lansing, Michigan Public Schools Human Resource Management will be a valuable addition to our training materials. This manual will also provide our trainers with an excellent support mechanism to enhance our ability to access and strengthen leadership capabilities. -- Bobbie D'Alessandro, former superintendent, Cambridge, Massachusetts Public Schools I highly recommend the Baker and Doran test to those interested in a hands-on problem solving approach to teaching human resource management in education. This text is filled with over 100 real-life in-basket problems that will give students an authentic sense of the personnel problems and issues in schools. -- Wayne K.
