STRATEGIC STAFFING

Strategic Staffing prepares all current and future managers to take a strategic and modern approach to the identification, attraction, selection, deployment, and retention of talent.

Organizations increasingly realize that their employees are the key to executing their business strategies, and the current competition for talent has made the identification and attraction of high-performing employees essential for companies to succeed in their marketplaces. The right employees give their organization a competitive advantage that sets it apart and drives its performance. In today’s business environment, a company’s ability to execute its strategy and maintain its competitive edge depends even more on the quality of its employees. And the quality of a company’s employees is directly affected by the quality of its recruiting and staffing systems. Because hiring managers are involved in the staffing process, hiring managers and human resources (HR) professionals need to be familiar with strategic staffing techniques. Over the past 10 years, advancing technology and the increased application of data analytics have changed the practices of sourcing, recruiting, and staffing.


Strategic Staffing is grounded in research, communicates practical and modern staffing concepts and the role of staffing in organizational performance, and is engaging to read. I have added information about the roles of technology, analytics, and ethics to every chapter to emphasize the importance of these concepts. The fourth edition of Strategic Staffing continues to present up-to-date staffing theories and practices in an interesting, engaging, and easy-to-read format. I tried to be responsive to the reviewers and users of the previous edition in revising this text.


Some of the more substantial changes in this edition are:
• New coverage of staffing ethics in each chapter and a new Staffing Ethics feature in each chapter
• New coverage of staffing metrics and analytics in each chapter
• New coverage of staffing-related technologies in each chapter
• Updated citations, statistics, and company examples throughout the text
• A total of 16 new Chern’s videos were created in the style of an online job interview that uses both situational and behavioral interview questions
• Provision of new activities in the Instructor’s Manual

Phillips treats staffing as an integrated process that begins with an understanding of a company’s business strategy and continues through planning, sourcing, recruiting, selecting, negotiating, socializing, career planning, retaining, and transitioning employees into other roles and out of the organization. These stages allow organizations to meet their hiring objectives and ensure that their talent is in the right place at the right time. Although the book is research based, many practical and company examples are included to illustrate the material. Strategic Staffing describes how to do the following:
• Develop a staffing strategy that reinforces business strategy.
• Forecast talent needs and labor supply and plan accordingly.
• Conduct a job or competency analysis and a job rewards analysis.
• Source potential recruits strategically.
• Recruit and select the right people.
• Negotiate with and hire top candidates.
• Socialize, deploy, and retain talent.
• Manage turnover.
• Use staffing metrics and conduct staffing system evaluations.
• Employ technology throughout the staffing system.
• Integrate the staffing system with the other HR functions of training, compensation, and performance management.
• Ensure the legal compliance of the staffing system.
• Promote ethical staffing.
• Leverage technology, metrics, and data analytics to optimize the performance and efficiency of a staffing system.
