Met de huidige ontwikkelingen op de arbeidsmarkt wordt het steeds belangrijker na te denken over personeelsmanagement op lange termijn. Waarom doen we dingen en doen we wel de goede dingen?

Strategisch personeelsmanagement kijkt verder dan de waan van de dag. Hierbij komen verschillende thema’s aan de orde gebaseerd op de ervaringen en onderzoek van onze spreker.

We hebben namelijk een zeer interessante spreker gevonden om ons meer te komen vertellen over dit onderwerp! Dr. Brigitte Kroon is werkzaam op de Universiteit van Tilburg. De volgende omschrijving komt van de site van de Universiteit van Tilburg waarin haar ervaring duidelijk wordt.

Bio:

Trained as a work and organizational psychologist with 10 years of experience in HRM and consulting, I joined Tilburg University in 2003 to teach and to research about HRM.

I strongly believe that all organizations can benefit more from human resource management when more time is spend on understanding the causes of people-related issues in their specific contexts  in combination with a better understanding of available research evidence. This implies that I take effort to understand the organizational context that relates to people management issues (research). I like to tell students (education) and practitioners (executive education, management) that it is possible to improve the quality of people related decision-making in organizations by making better use of research evidence and taking a bit more time to understand people related issues in organizations.

My research focus is on extending HRM theory to work contexts that are less standard in HRM research, such as small entrepreneurial (family) businesses and low skilled work. I combine a business- with an ethical/employee perspective in evaluating HRM outcomes (decent work).
