Is Human Resource Management simply an elegant theory or does it have a basis in reality?

Abstract

Human Resource Management was a much-hyped and oft-repeated phrase in the 1980s and 1990s. Prior to this, Personnel Management was commonly used. These two terms can be differentiated by many ways and have been distinguished by various authors. We need to understand the common definition of those terms which have a basic goal: to organize and structure the employees in order to give them the opportunity to get the greatest of themselves with the maximum of efficiency to reach the company's goals.
