Taylor & Francis Adverse Impact and Test Validation A
Book SynopsisAdverse impact analyses and test validation promote social justice and equity. Employers who unknowingly use invalid tests or recruitment procedures that have an adverse impact are reducing minority and/or female representation in their workforce, unfairly screening out qualified workers and (worst of all) just plain discriminating. Dan Biddle's Adverse Impact and Test Validation provides you with analyses that allow you to identify which of your selection procedures have adverse impact. The validation steps will help you decide whether to keep the selection procedure (because it's valid), change it, or stop using it altogether. This second edition contains new material on using multiple regression to evaluate pay practices and provides step-by-step instructions for using SPSS or Excel for evaluating your company's pay practices for possible inequities. New content on how to define Internet applicants and set up defensible Basic Qualifications (BQs) for online recruiting will help employers ensure compliance with EEO regulations and screen in qualified applicants. Specific guidelines for developing and validating written job knowledge tests, such as those used for police and fire promotional testing, have also been included in this new edition. The downloadable resources include tools (which may be used on a trial evaluation basis) describing several of the functions described in the book, including Adverse Impact Toolkità , Test Validation and Analysis Programà (TVAPà ), Guidelines Oriented Job Analysisà (GOJAà ) Manual, and Content Validity Checklists. This highly pragmatic guide goes beyond the concepts, theories and ideas behind adverse impact and test validation. It not only explains what to do but crucially, also shows you how to do it. The second edition has been expanded to include two brand new chapters with a new Appendix and comes with new editions of the accompanying software. As a means of protecting your organization from litigation, damage to employee relations and to your corporate reputation, Adverse Impact and Test Validation is a 'must-have' purchase for human resource professionals, testing and recruitment specialists.Trade ReviewReviews from the first edition: 'Before the resurgence of the civil rights movement in the middle of the twentieth century, many employers had relegated the development of employee selection procedures to persons of the technician level. This was reinforced by some academics employment selection "cookbooks". These activities led to the use of many improper selection procedures that not only hurt the employment prospects of many groups, but also served no useful purpose for the employer. As new civil rights acts became effective and guidelines regarding employee selection were promulgated, it was quickly realized by both employers and psychologists-both in industry and academia-that the technical issues were far beyond the technician level. In fact even today, some of the issues are so complicated that only a small minority of psychologists can rightly claim to really understand them. Dr Biddle's book is an excellent effort to bridge the gap between the technical and the practical. The procedures presented are informed by the most relevant technical information and by present legal requirements. This book is best suited for non-technicians who have at least a general foundation of relevant technical knowledge.' Mary L.

Taylor & Francis Service Led Design
Book SynopsisFor many years now, both private and public sector organizations have been dealing with the challenge of how best to improve corporate performance. HR has not escaped this scrutiny. The very same businesses that have spent recent years cost cutting, restructuring and streamlining, are putting the pressure on the HR 'overhead' to prove that it is not just a cost centre but a function that provides added value through alignment to business needs and aspirations. The traditional, transaction-based HR service must, however, still be delivered. Understanding how to combine a renewed strategic focus with effective delivery of transactional and administrative services is the key to HR's next generation of service delivery models. The authors' work with HR functions includes an established set of service design criteria and an approach that differentiates between a successful implementation and what can be a costly backward step that only serves to alienate the business. They show how any pTable of ContentsContents: Commercializing HR; Establishing your HR service vision; Specifying the service: what will HR deliver?; The building blocks: the service delivery model; Adapting the model; New HR - new line management?; Sizing the operation and building the business case; managing the service.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Action Learning for Managers
Book SynopsisAction Learning for Managers is a clear, concise and straightforward guide to this well-established approach to problem solving and learning in groups that enables change in individuals, teams, organisations and systems. Through action learning people develop themselves and build the relationships that are the key to improving operations and bringing about innovations. With questionnaires, checklists, examples and practical advice, this little book includes everything you need to get started. Action learning is essentially a simple idea but one that requires thought, commitment and care to put into practice.Trade Review'...For any manager who wants to defuse difficulties and facilitate an honest learning culture across a department or organization this book is a practical guide.' Gordon Harris FCMI, Professional Manager '[Action learning for Managers] is a really good guide...it’s not a lot of work to go through and it comes at a reasonable price for these days. Pedler offers clear, simple text, with plenty of stories, pictures, bullet lists and examples”and resources (such as questionnaires and checklists) which readers will not need much incentive to try out. Too many books on action learning seem to be heavy, in all senses, and that appears to be because they are linked to specific contexts (such as big business, manufacturing, and even, yes, education). Pedler’s book is indeed context-free and that seems to have made it much more accessible and fun and therefore much more likely to succeed.' British Journal of Educational Technology This book is straightforward and practical as regards the why and how of action learning. It is eminently easy to read and digest and maintains reader interest, partly because of the subject matter and partly because of the way the content is presented...it provides both the first time reader and experienced professional with quality content and an up to date overview of action learning. Beyond that the authors offers the following salutary advice ’’There is really only one way to get going with action learning and that is to try it’’ This text provides an ideal springboard from which to do so. Alan Cattell, Industrial and Commercial TrainingTable of ContentsContents: Introduction; What is action learning?; Will it work in my organisation?; What does an action learning programme look like?; How does an action learning set work?; What is an action learning problem?; What skills are developed in action learning?; How do you evaluate action learning?; Surely action learning can't do everything?; Where can I get more information?; Index.
