Definitions of Human Resources Management

	          		I am looking for a good definition of HRM... Wikipedia says Human Resource Management is the strategic and coherent approach to the management of an organization's most valued assets - the people working there who individually and collectively contribute to the achievement of the objectives of the business.

But is this definition of HRM widely accepted?

													HRM  can be very well defined as the development of human capital which is the most valued asset for business development. Creating value and satisfaction for your human capital will in turn should lead to customer satisfaction.

Most valued assets is the most important part in the definition. If only it would be understood by the employers and other stakeholders.

				                Include IT in the Definition of HRM

													Yes, it is quite general and specific at the same time. It illustrates the strategy of the firm, individualism(esteem) and collectivism (social) and is connected to the goals of the organization.

After the tremendous IT (MIS) bang in management, I suggest it is of great significance to include technology in the definition.
