Current circumstances are forcing companies to react quickly to the changes that are taking place. Maintaining competitiveness and survival depends on adaptability and the search for innovations. The goal of modern human resource management is to stimulate employees to be creative and utilise their potential. The aim of this study is to find out what motivational factors Czech companies use to stimulate and encourage the creativity of their employees and whether the chosen factors for achieving this are related to company size.

Abstract Current demographic and economic conditions in individual countries lead to a significant increase in competition in the labour market. Every employer from all economic sectors wants to have competent and talented human resources and the fight for such employees becomes still harder. To attract and retain the best employees, it is necessary for the companies to build up a good employer brand that may appeal to talented employees. The article provides a picture of the current situation in employer branding in the agricultural, forestry, and fishing sectors in the Czech Republic and deals with the ways of its improvement. The investigation was conducted by means of a questionnaire survey covering 108 participating companies, and the methods of analysis, synthesis, deduction, and induction. The results have shown that the majority of agricultural companies (75.9%) perceive knowledge continuity management as a trend that contributes to good employer branding. The major benefits arising from the encouragement of employer branding in agricultural companies include acquisition of new talented human resources (57.4%) and retention of key employees (56.4%).

The article focuses on selected current trends in human resource management in health service providers in the Czech Republic. Its goal was the mapping and evaluation of these trends in selected health service providers by staff management experts (HR managers) in the Czech Republic. The contribution presents a view of some of the results of quantitative and qualitative research conducted in selected health service providers in the Czech Republic. These researches were conducted in 2016 from a sample of 47 respondents (HR managers of selected health service providers in the Czech Republic), and the results were analyzed. One research hypothesis and one research question have been formulated. The verification or rejection of the null research hypothesis was done through the statistical method of the Pearson’s Chi‑square test. The research results show differing levels of awareness and differentiations – primarily by owner, size as measured in number of beds and geographical segmentation of each health services provider among individual selected trends in human resource management in health service providers in the Czech Republic.
