Human resource (HR) governance is a relatively new construct that has recently begun attracting
more and more attention in both research and practice. As a part of corporate governance it
represents the internal and external normative framework of human resource management and its
supervision in organizations. This book theoretically integrates HR governance with the related
domains of corporate governance general management HR management and leadership. By doing so
it provides scholars and practitioners in the field with a precisely delineated system of
theoretical concepts for their work and helps to translate these concepts into concrete
research questions and practical guidelines. By interpreting the new ISO 30408 norm on human
governance and taking into account recent developments the book helps to comply with and
anticipate current and future HR regulations.
