Managing Human Resources or Virtual Handshake

Managing Human Resources: Productivity, Quality of Work Life, Profits

Author: Wayne Cascio

Wayne Cascio's Managing Human Resources, 7/e, is perfect for the general management student whose job inevitably will involve responsibility for managing people. It explicitly links the relationship between productivity, quality of work life, and profits to various human resource management activities and, as such, strengthens the students' perception of human resource management as an important function, which affects individuals, organizations, and society. It is research-based and contains strong links to the applicability of this research to real business situations.

Virtual Handshake: Opening Doors and Closing Deals Online

Author: David Teten

More people have used the Internet to participate in an online group than
to read news or even to buy something. Online social networks have enjoyed
phenomenal growth in recent years, and every major Internet portal now
offers some kind of social networking or "blogging" tool to its users.

But these tools are not just recreational - they are rapidly becoming
essential tools for business. They are part of a "social software" toolkit
that includes blogs, relationship capital management software, advanced
contact managers, virtual communities, web conferencing, instant messaging,
and much more. The Virtual Handshake gives you the tools to take advantage
of these new technologies to become dramatically more successful in
business.

Filled with clear, real-life examples, The Virtual Handshake shows you how
to:

* sign new customers, meet new business partners, and find your dream job
* create a powerful professional presence online
* attract business in online networks
* meet more relevant senior people
* start and promote your own blog
* master the email deluge
* analyze and value your social network
* use web conferencing and discussion forums to build strong relationships
* manage your contact database
* ensure privacy and safety online

The Virtual Handshake is the first book ever written about how to become extraordinarily successful by using these new online tools.  Buying the book gives you a free pass to an extremely thorough and continually-updated resource site, TheVirtualHandshake.
