AbstractThis paper will illustrate the meaning and importance of human resource management (HRM), human resource planning, and strategic human resource management, which are critically important for an organization’s effectiveness and must be effectively managed (Doherty, 1998). This study used the literature review method to acquire its final results. The relevant HRM literature review was done according to the purpose of the study. It used the purposive random sample method for selecting relevant literature. This study shows the current economic environment in the sports industry; the second part of the study critically analyzes the value of the strategic management of employees for the effective and efficient operation of sports organizations. It also critically evaluates human resource planning and other pertinent issues in terms of legislation, recruitment, selection, training, induction, and reward management from different international examples in sports management. Over the past few decades, increasing competition, globalization, and continuous changes in the market and in technology have emphasized the need to rethink the management of the organization and of human resources for the sake of overcoming significant challenges (Taylor et al., 2006). Therefore, managers should use strategic human resource management to overcome significant issues and to form well-planned strategies so that the organization may succeed.

Human resources planning is becoming more important as the Public Services (primarily of Belize, Grenada, Guyana and Jamaica) face the scarcity of “human capital”, and begin to plan for, rather than react to, human resource management problems. The effectiveness of human resource planning depends largely on how well the information resource is managed. This article focuses on general considerations for implementing and managing human resource information systems, shares related Caribbean experiences and imperatives for the future.

<p>Strategic human resource management involves a future-oriented process of developing and implementing HR programs that address and solve business problems and directly contribute to major long-term business objectives. HR management has changed dramatically in recent decades. It was once largely an administrative function focused on day-to-day responsibilities such as employee recruiting and selection and managing employee benefits. Changing labor market conditions and new business thinking call for HR business strategies that include recruiting and retaining the right people, as well as providing ethical and cultural leadership[1].This paper discusses the following issues : The importance of human resource activity , The importance of strategic human resource planning, The changing role of human resource management and nature of work and non government organizations , Technology effect on human resource management and implications for distance training and learning .A field study was conducted to know the attitude of one hundred and five Saudi employees towards the effect of distance learning and training on human resource management and development</p>

The study aims to explore the impact of the strategic human resource management practices on organizational climate and organizational performance. The study used simple random sampling technique, and 387 responses have been collected finally. The primary data have been collected from professionals/managers of different manufacturing units from five divisions of West Bengal, namely Burdwan, Medinipur, Malda, Presidency and Jalpaiguri. Compensation management, employee relation and human resource planning (HRP) have positive and significant impact toward organizational climate where compensation management has greater impact compared to other factors toward organizational climate. Performance management, training and development, and recruitments and selection have negative and nonsignificant impact toward organizational climate. The study implies that proper compensation, good relationship with employees, and proper planning of human resources can improve the organizational climate, which also improves the organizational performance. The study is original as no such research has been conducted in the Indian context earlier.

Nowadays human resource management is of prior significance, since the human resource is the most important resource that determines the success of an organisation. Human resource management includes many activity areas of which the most important activities are the follows: employment analysis - planning - evaluation, human resource planning, labour supply, performance assessment, incentive, development of human resources, labour relations, labour safety, HRM information system. In the course of my examinations I wanted to find the answer how these functions are assessed by the employees of the organisations, which are considered as the most important. I executed my examinations in the county of Hajdú-Bihar and Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg. I applied surveys, and the questionnaires were processed by the SPSS 13 programme.
